The Lancaster Bicycle Club is a recreational club for cyclists of all levels.
The Club carefully plans rides and related events such as bike-safety courses that result in self-confidence, physical fitness, and improved riding skills for cyclists. The Club also hosts numerous social events and supports bicycle-related initiatives through its grant program. The Club has awarded over $530,000 in grants since 1999.
Whether you are an experienced rider or new to bike riding, you can find a variety of suitable rides here on Lancaster Bicycle Club’s Meetup site. Rides are held year round.
Your Meetup membership does not mean you are a Lancaster Bicycle Club member. To eliminate the need for a paper waiver at the ride start, we require club membership in addition to Meetup. You can join today at [lancasterbikeclub.net. ](https://lancasterbikeclub.net)
For proper verification of membership we do not allow anonymous Meetup IDs. Please sign up with a first and last name in order for your request to join be approved.
Thank You.

FreeOnFriday? Cabin Fever 23R
Terre Hill Community Memorial Park210 Lancaster AveTerre Hill, PA 17581, 210 Lancaster Ave, Terre Hill, PA, USRIDE LEADER: Jan Zerfoss, average pace 12 mph.
Cue and Ride with GPS link: Cabin Fever
Be Safe, Have Fun, and Ride TogetherThis is a casual ride and the ride leader will ride at the advertised pace. Some riders may ride faster than the leader so we'll likely break into one or more smaller groups. We will stop to regroup periodically. Please stay with other riders in your pace group so everyone has someone to ride with and nobody is riding solo. Usually no designated sweep but nobody will get dropped.
Terre Hill Park has well maintained restrooms that are usually open. There is also a bike repair station there.
Post-ride coffee/refreshments - we can enjoy BYO refreshments in the pavilion after the ride.
Helmets are mandatory. No earbuds. Please bring water and a basic repair kit (spare tube, tire levers, pump/CO2 inflator).
