Now that the Houston Bike Plan has passed , Bike Houston needs more support than ever.  Through all of April,   any new memberships or donations will be matched doubling your impact!  Even if civic infrastructure and local bureaucracy don't get you excited, safer streets sure will.

Does your idea of the perfect ride start with a brisk swim and finish with a nice run?  Then be sure to "tri" the Tri Color and Springs Back triathlons.  B oth out in the beautiful city of Fulshear, these are two of the most well run sprint triathlons in Houston.



Gran Fondo Texas is not just a great ride to help get you into shape for the BP MS 150; it's also a chance to win a new bike! Of course either way there are no losers when you're pedaling your way through the gorgeous countryside before having lunch and celebrating with your friends.
