The Mountain State Wheelers Bicycle Club is a nonprofit corporation devoted to increasing the benefits of bicycling in the Greater Kanawha Valley. The club is affiliated with the League of American Bicyclists, America's National Bicycle Organization (since 1880), and the International Mountain Bicycling Association (IMBA).

We are a group of cyclists of all abilities and all persuasions-single and married of all ages- who believe cycling to be one of the most pleasurable and healthy activities of our lives. We welcome everyone who enjoys cycling. Before joining, you may ride with the club twice as a guest.

Ours is not a racing club. Our riders are selected from the tourist and recreational rider, but some of our rides would be suitable for the strongest cyclist. The club consists of both road riders and mountain bikers, so we have something to offer everyone.

Most of our rides are on secondary roads in the Kanawha and Putnam counties with some larger rides extending into our counties. Rides of various difficulties are scheduled each month so members have the opportunity to participate monthly.

Our rides are listed according to their difficulty from "A" being for experienced riders to "D" for all riders. Rides are graded for difficulty and are listed in the monthly club newsletter, SpokeNotes, and on the WEB.

The club also has an annual Fall camping weekend the first weekend in October. Check out the Camping for more details.

Our primary activity is riding for the fitness and camaraderie, but we also have other cycling and non-cycling related activities. During the winter months, club members will lead hikes in Kanawha State Forest and the New River Gorge.
