Elbow Valley Cycle Club - About Us

The Elbow Valley Cycle Club (EVCC) was formed in 1983 to promote the enjoyment of on- and off-road cycling in the Calgary area and to advocate and protect cyclists' rights and access to these facilities. The club does not participate in any races but is strictly a bicycle touring club. The EVCC is a not-for-profit organization run by volunteers. Our membership of approximately 800 members resides mainly in Calgary and area but also extends to other provinces and the United States.
