 The LWA was established in 1951 and has since been the Lehigh Valley's largest cycling organization, with a program of recreational riding and racing. FCCC, founded in 1984 has been instrumental in providing support to juniors involved in competitive road and track cycling. The new junior group will race under the name of Bike Line Future Champions, as Bike Line sponsors the LWA racing team.
Our activities are centered in, but not limited to, the Lehigh Valley of Eastern Pennsylvania.
We offer a full schedule of road and off-road rides, and our racing team hosts several criteriums and training races for licensed (USCF) riders, as well as a club championship and monthly time trials that are open to all members. In addition to our traditional schedule of races, the Lehigh Wheelmen will be host to the Tour de FCCC, a junior stage race for cyclists ages 10 through 18. The Tour de FCCC, begun in 1994, attracts cyclists from the tri-state area as well as teams from as far away as Bermuda. The 'Tour' consists of a road race and time trial at the Pagoda in Reading, PA, followed by a criterium at the Rodale Cycling and Fitness Park in Trexlertown, PA. |
