'QC That's Where' the biking community benefits from great trails and hidden treasures
Manage episode 371007559 series 3492686
Tina Anderson and Mandy Griesenbeck are bicyclists who lead the Quad Cities community in the sport.
Tina is with the Quad Cities Bike Club and Mandy is with QC Friends of Off-Road Cycling. Both women have made bicycling a part of their lifestyle, owning a bike for every condition. As Mandy and Tina can confirm, passionate cyclists have more than one bike, sometimes taking up all the garage space!
The Quad Cities has over time become more cyclist friendly, with cities painting bike lanes along the roadways and the new I-74 Bridge presenting its pedestrian pathway. These actions and more have created more awareness of sharing the road with cyclists and work to encourage others to get into the sport.
These two clubs do maintenance work on area trails and are always looking for volunteers.
