Mission

The Waco Bicycle Club is a non-profit organization whose mission is to promote and service the cycling needs of the McLennan county area. Each year the WBC works hard to reach out to local schools, churches, and community organizations in an effort to promote the sport and get individuals excited about cycling.

Philanthropy / Community

As a philanthropic organization the club regularly works to help raise / donate money to charitable organizations such as the Safe Kids Coalition, Campfire Boys and Girls Club, Texas Bicycle Coalition, United Cerebral Palsy, National Marrow Donor Program, Lone Star Circle of Life Donor Institute, Mother Neff State Park, and the Waco Park Ranger Service.

As an organization dedicated to community, our members spend hundreds of hours working to improve our local parks--building trails, making signs, constructing trailhead features, and picking up litter. The WBC regularly puts on bicycle camps for kids. Through community fairs and events, the club distributes helmets, bikes, teaches bicycle safety, and acts as a general ambassador. To date, the WBC has distributed over 100 bicycles and 150 helmets.

Competitive Sport

The Waco Bicycle Club is also very active in competitive sport. Team WBC members compete in USCF and NORBA sanctioned events throughout Texas, Oklahoma, and Louisiana. Team members race in every event in the Subaru Championship Series, Festina Cup Championship Series, and also participate in many of the 90+ USCF sanctioned venues as well as several of the 150+ Texas Tours. The Waco Bicycle Club is privileged to have a UCI Masters World Champion, a NORBA National Champion, a NORBA ranked professional woman, and several TMBRA Championship Series winners among its membership. In addition, the team mechanic for the professional mountain biking team Gary Fisher/Subaru resides right here in and is an active member.
