COWs Rides & Club News

Our Rides
Couples on Wheels hosts and participates in multiple tandem cycling events each year, including our annual Spring Rally in May.
Our club also sponsors smaller regional events known as Wrangler Rides. The hosts for a Wrangler Ride provide maps and some type of after-event cookout or buffet. Couples typically bring a dish to pass and COWs members reimburse the hosts $5.00 per person for meat & beverages.
In addition to our club sponsored rides, COWs members regularly participate in other regional rides, such as the annual Midwest Tandem Rally (MTR) over Labor Day weekend. The 2023 MTR is being hosted by the Hoosiers Out On Tandems (HOOTS) in Fort Wayne, Indiana — September 1-4, 2023.
