about aabts

The Ann Arbor Bicycle Touring Society (AABTS) organizes group day trips for road and mountain bike enthusiasts—view the Ann Arbor Observer Events listings for details. We plan out-of-state tours. We also publish a bimonthly ride calendar and a newsletter. Annual dues are $15, family $20 (includes discounts at area bike shops and mileage recognition patches for minimum 500 miles/year). There is no charge for nonmembers to participate in individual rides. Click here for our membership form: 2008 new member and renewal form. Also, check out our Information Center for the latest on ride captains' instructions, rules of the road, and more.
