Recently I was told about the Tyler Bicycle Club, a group of
cycling enthusiasts and other supporters of the cycling community in Tyler and
other parts of East Texas. Membership
for the club includes novice cyclists who are encouraged to take part in the
joys of the activity, as well as experienced cyclists who wish to continue
improving in the activity that they love.
The Tyler Bicycle Club is a growing organization, and they
are looking for new cycling enthusiasts from the area! The group partakes in group rides, cycling
tours, and many other activities meant to reach out to the community. If you are interested in the organization, check
out their website for more information!
Perhaps the most famous cycling event that the club sponsors
is the Beauty and the Beast Bike Tour, a 67-mile bike tour through the hills of
East Texas. Cyclists get to see the
beauty of East Texas throughout the bike ride, and then, they tackle The Beast,
a 7/10ths of a mile ride from Nixon to Highway 69. The video below discusses how brutal this
part of the race is…it is a doozy.
Joseph Canter and Addison Day produced the following video
about the Beauty and the Beast Bike Tour, a fantastic yearly event that both
supports the community, and allows cyclists to come together and take part in a
long ride, something that they all enjoy.
