The Tacoma Wheelmen's Bicycle Club is an excellent resource for local cyclists.
Whether you are looking for info on South Sound routes, organized rides (there's one almost everyday this summer), advocacy or you want to subscribe to their newsletter, check out twbc.org.
The TWBC was instrumental in getting the new Highway 16 bike trail named after cycling advocate Scott Pierson. The Scott Pierson Trail will be dedicated Saturday morning at War Memorial Park and Cheney Stadium.
