Community Outreach: 2023 Toy/Coat Drive 


GII would like to thank all those that supported the holiday toy/coat drive and all the generous donations and gifts. This year we held our fifth toy/coat drive beginning with our Saturday rides in November and ending with the Ugly Sweater Ride on December 17th.  The support of the cycling community came through!

The toys and coats were delivered to the Willing Helpers Society. We know that it takes a village to orchestrate a toy/coat drive and it’s because of folks like you who make it possible. We thank you all for your generous hearts. From all those that donated to all those that volunteered their time – THANK YOU!

The greatest gift of all is letting the youth and those in need know they have been remembered and are cared about in a special way. Your gifts put a smile on so many faces this holiday season.



Over the past few years, GII has kept and acquired more cyclists who love to ride their bikes and meet new friends. We all have the same passion: to challenge ourselves and stay healthy. Bicycle Magazine has noticed our accomplishments and recognized us as one of the best clubs on the East Coast.   

With this growth has come success and some challenges. One of our challenges is keeping up with increased operational costs and inflation. To overcome this, we ask you to invest more in ourselves to keep us moving in the right direction.   The annual membership dues will increase to $45. 

We listened to all your comments, while there are many. So, your voice in your club is heard, and the direction is clear. Having a positive impact in the community, a supportive bike shop, informative cycling clinics, and safe, supported rides are essential to you.    

We can accomplish remarkable things with your continued support and dedication to this sport.
