    IT'S TIME TO RENEW!

    The new membership year begins February 1st. Club dues help to fund everything we do; from the daily rides that hundreds attend every week to our annual Memorial Day and July 4th Freedom Rides, to our annual signature TAB event, MARR.

    Club dues benefit local and state organizations like Metroparks Toledo and the Ohio Bicycle Federation; national organizations such as the League of American Bicyclists who work on our behalf to improve cycling infrastructure, propose new legislation to help make our journeys safer, and increase overall awareness. We partner with these and other local organizations like the Maumee Valley Adventurers and The Right Direction Youth Program to expose young and old to the wonderful world of cycling.

    Your dues go back into the community as part of our effort to build a cycle-friendly region we all can enjoy. Please support TAB in our efforts and make the choice to renew or become a new member. It's quick and painless, and helps us to maintain, strengthen and build on an organization that promotes the sport we love.

    You can join or renew online at the secure link below:

    From Nate Burks:

    *** UPDATE - ROUTE CHANGE ***

    In the interest of rider safety, due to the current forecast of 4-8 inches of snow starting Friday night into Saturday morning we are changing the ride from Country Charm to the South Fork.

    As before, we will start in Whitehouse and ride the south fork of the Wabash-Cannonball Trail to Liberty Center. 11.8 miles each way, with approximately 7 miles unpaved. We will stop for breakfast at the 1/2way point at the Liberty Cafe.

    Fat/mountain bikes will be preferred. See the updated route below!

    Departure at 9am from Cyclewerks in Whitehouse. As always, arrive a few minutes early to sign in and be eligible to win a fabulous prize!

    Winter Warriors meet at Mountain Man Sports this Saturday at 9am for chili and a ride over to Ottawa Park. If the conditions allow, we will ride the Jermaine/Ottawa Park MTB trail. Our backup plan is to ride around Ottawa Park and then go out and back on the University Trail for a casual 22 miles.

    Arrive early for the weekly prize drawing. Hope to see you there!
