Founded on the principle of making Marin’s world-class roads accessible to all cyclists, Tamalpais Velo Club has emerged into one of the Bay Area’s most respected cycling communities.
As the club celebrates its 5th anniversary – partnering with local businesses like Equator Coffees, Stanford Children’s Hospital, Sports Basement, Epicenter Cycling and Vitesse Vineyards, and joining the Mill Valley Chamber of Commerce – it’s clear that its best rides are still ahead.
From organizing community rides to empowering members as ride leaders, Tam Velo Club is cultivating a legacy that blends Marin’s rich cycling history with a modern vision for the sport’s future.
Let us know if you’d be interested in telling the story of how Tamalpais Velo Club is shaping the cycling landscape in Marin and beyond.
The Tamalpais Velo Club was established in 2019 to fill a void in the local cycling scene—a fun, social, and community-focused club for riders seeking a moderate-paced ride, rather than the high-speed, race-training “hammerfests” or more entry-level options offered by other clubs.
We provide a supportive space for cyclists who want to enjoy the ride without being too worn out to get back on the bike the next day.
Based in Mill Valley, we host weekly rides every Saturday and Sunday morning, and Wednesday evening, exploring the beautiful roads and trails around the North Bay and beyond.
Our club is built around the joy of cycling and the unique camaraderie it fosters. Our mission is to develop a diverse group that enjoys cycling in a non-competitive environment, promote cycling skills and etiquette, and be ambassadors for the sport, all while having fun.
Named after Mount Tamalpais, whose towering peaks shape Marin County’s landscape and culture, Tam Velo Club is a reminder of how fortunate we are to live in such a unique place. We’re here to explore its ever-changing terrain together and build a vibrant community around it.
