En Memoriam

June 18, 2009

Bill joined CSBG in early 2004. He immediately became one of the most consistent and supportive riders on our weekly rides and it was obvious that he was one of our strongest riders. He was always ready to help with a flat tire or other difficulty. In 2007 he was designated to be our leader, because he was so capable and well liked by everyone. He was always an example, both in his riding skills and his concern for other riders. We will miss him a lot.

The Claremont City Council honored Bill with a moment of silence at their meeting on May 12.


Welcome!

CSBG at Puddingstone Lake

If you are looking for organized bicycle rides in the Claremont, California area, you’ve come to the right place. The Claremont Senior Bike Group (CSBG) is a fun, friendly group of cyclists of all skill levels. Claremont has been designated a Bicycle Friendly City by the League of American Bicyclists!

Our regular weekly rides are on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday mornings; beginner rides are on Tuesday mornings.

MISSION

We provide an environment where folks can participate and grow in bicycling in a safe, friendly setting. We are not a racing club, but we do enjoy and encourage recreational bicycle riding at all skill levels.

In 2008, our group logged about 56,500 miles.

MEMBERS

All adult ages and skill levels are welcome. We have about 50 active riders and about 30 more who ride on occasion or intend to start soon. Our group continues to grow every year. In all, we have approximately 90 members.

Membership is free since we are sponsored by the Claremont Senior Program. The median age of our frequent riders is 65, several of our riders are in their 40s and 50s, and some of our most active riders are in their 80s. Nearly half of our riders are women.
