Organized by and for folks who like the simplicity of riding and racing bikes.
Founded in 2018, our goal is to bring local cyclists together for fun and fitness both on and off the bike, across all skill levels disciplines.
We host a series of group rides throughout the week with designated ride leaders and fixed GPS routes, focusing on ride safety on low-traffic roads.
Southern Velo is the only USAC and TBRA affiliated club in the Chattanooga area, with a small but dedicated group of members who participate in regional races across Tennessee, Georgia and Alabama. We were recognized by USA Cycling in 2019 with the "Best New Club" designation.
Our aim is simple: to have fun on the bike, encourage new riders, offer opportunities to ride or race on a regular basis, and to enjoy the “veloship” of our fellow riders and club members in the region.
Come ride with us!
