Welcome to the Baltimore Metro Wheelers Cycling Club (BMWCC)! 

 

  The BMWCC traces its roots to a loosely organized group of cyclists, who at one point carried the name "The Baltimore Peloton", that have ridden out of Deer Park Middle School in Randallstown, MD for nearly 30 years. The decision to formalize as a club came to fruition in April of 2008 at the annual Major Taylor Cycling Summit in Townsend, Tennessee.  The Summit is attended by cycling clubs from around the country and is centered around three days of vigorous cycling comraderie in and around the Great Smoky Mountains.

Our current members range from the occasional cyclist to current and former racers.  BMWCC will strive to make your cycling experience enjoyable, from the casual to the more advanced recreational cyclist.  If you’re just looking to improve your overall health and fitness level, want to share your cycling skills with others or just want to get out and ride, then BMWCC is the club for you.   If you feel passionate about cycling and enjoy the sport, then BMWCC is definitely the club for you. The club’s goal is to help make your cycling experiences enjoyable, pleasurable and safe.  Through BMWCC, we believe you will enjoy your cycling experience like never before.    

  Purpose and Mission of the BMWCC

  • BMWCC is dedicated to promoting all aspects of bicycling  to novice, intermediate and advanced road and mountain bikers in metropolitan Baltimore and the surrounding areas.
  • The mission of the club is to support recreational bicycling activities and encourage skill development, training, physical fitness and social interaction through BMWCC activities and in cooperation with other groups supporting the sport of bicycling.

Interested in a BMWCC Membership?  See our Handouts section to obtain a membership application and for information on becoming a member of the BMWCC.

Thanks for stopping by and we hope you enjoy your BMWCC web experience!

Flea Market a Huge Success for BMWCC!

The BMWCC Flea Market and club fundraiser on June 26th was a huge SUCCESS!  We had over 60 vendors selling everything from clothes, household items, beauty products and jewelery to dvds and statues.  We even had the specialty services of a mobile car wash service, pit beef cook and watermelon vendor.  We were there at 5:30am for final set up and vendors started arriving as early as 6:00am!  The vendors were definitely serious about their business. There was a constant flow of customers throughout the day and many vendors inquired when we would have another event.   Finally, a special thanks goes out to our Fundraising Chairperson, Mike Davis for coming up with the idea and then doing a great job to make the event a success!
