Proteus Velo Club
PVC's Laurie Lemieux Clinics the Mud at the 2022 Croatan Buck Fifty
Our ride zen is non-competitive, community focused, and inclusive. Some of us race , but our rides are more about the scenery and the fitness/social aspect than about power or grams. We encourage riders to start out with easier rides and progress to longer, faster rides. Welcome to PVC!
WAIVER -- All Must Sign (once a year)!
