Welcome to The Oz Bicycle Club

The OZ Bicycle Club of Wichita, Kansas is one of the oldest and largest cycling clubs in the midwest.  We have members from more than 59 Kansas communities and seven other states.  Oz is truly a "full service" club, offering our members an array of interests.  We sponsor regular touring and ATB rides. Our monthly meetings are held year-round.

Our club's biggest annual event is the Wicked Wind 100, on the weekend after Mother's Day every year.  (Mark your calendars for the weekend of May 18 and 19, 2013;  we'll have events Saturday and Sunday.) The Wicked Wind has grown to a "must do" ride for cyclists from all over the region.  It offers something for riders of any ability, with 25-, 50-, and 100-mile routes.

Sign up for our mailing list and keep informed of upcoming events, here.

Hello fellow Ozzies,

Here we are in the month of May. Winter did not seem to want to surrender to make way for Spring. But Spring is finally here.

May is Bike month so please go out and enjoy some of our club rides. We have rides on most days of the month. Sometimes we have 2 or 3 rides scheduled on the same day. There is a ride out there for everyone. So go out and participate on one of the fun rides we have scheduled.

The Wicked Wind ride is scheduled in Haysville this month. The pre rides will be on Saturday May 18 and the big Ride is scheduled for Sunday May 19. We have rides scheduled for 25, 50 and 100 miles. Lunch will be served at the Haysville com-munity center building. So it will be great fun as always. Final packet pickup will be at 6:00 AM Sunday. The 100 mile and 50 mile will start at 7:30 AM. The 25 mile will start at 8:00 AM. See you there.

See you on the road
