Welcome to Major Taylor Cycling Club of New Jersey
(MTCCNJ)

If you enjoy cycling in New Jersey, we’re the club for you. Major Taylor Cycling Club of New Jersey (MTCCNJ) is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting all aspects of cycling. We are a diverse group of cyclists, who offer short leisurely rides for those just getting started and more challenging rides for those ready to ride hard and fast. A few times a year, we have all day tours, and even a yearly multi-day excursion. No matter the distance we travel, we strive to promote fun and fitness.

In addition to our many rides, we get together for other social events to help build the camaraderie among our members and other cycling clubs. We aim to have fun both on and off the bike.

MTCCNJ offers something for every cyclist. We look forward to having you as a member. Visit our membership page

THURSDAY TANGO (TT)

The ever popular, "Thursday Tango,"

after work social rides, led by the

venerable Johnny Swanson,

a long-time club member, has

"a little bit of everything".

Thursday Tango could be just

what you're looking for. Cycling

experience and skill levels vary,

from relatively new riders to

veterans.

Newcomers are welcome, but know that the

Tango is not for the novice (the first-time rider).

Some cycling experience is necessary.

Virtual TT is available on Zwift during "off season."

RIDE CALENDAR

The ride calendar gives a quick

look at your favorite, upcoming

rides throughout the year.

You can add rides to your personal calendar,

so that you don't miss out on the fun.

During the week, you can join an early morning sunrise ride,

or get down and dirty on a gravel ride or end the day on evening ride.
