Our aim, our mission if you will, is for everyone to have a good time on  SBC bicycle rides and events. The SBC goal is to offer bicycle rides for all ages, speeds, abilities, terrain.  Schaumburg Bicycle Club was formed in 1999 after participating in Schaumburg Park District’s Fahrrad Tour von Schaumburg that spring.  Schaumburg and its surrounding communities have plenty of cyclists enjoying the local forest preserves and Schaumburg’s 89 miles of bikeways and paths.  A bicycle club helps get more people on their bicycles, make friends and have fun.
