Established
on
the
16th
of
March
1991.
On
that
day
about
40
cycling
enthusiasts,
who
agreed
to
make
cycling
a
new
choice
for
solving
problems
of
local
traffic,
air
pollution
and
energy
consumption,
rallied
on
Bangkok
streets
together
for
the
first
time
in
Thailand.
The purpose of the rally
was to reintroduce this
environmentally friendly
vehicle to Thai society.
Ten years later those
some forty people turned
out to be a more than
3,000 strong group of
people of all walks of
life, age, occupation,
rank and position. The
whole families have
joined our Club and many
children of TCC members
enjoy biking and camping
during our regular
provincial trips. A
large proportion of our
members are ladies both
singles and married, who
enjoy a chance to
explore Thailand safely
at a cost lower than any
tour company. We join up
with cycling clubs local
to the places visited
and, as a result, enjoy
local hospitality and
see places which would
be difficult without
local knowledge.
Very soon we can claim
that not a corner of
Thailand remains
unexplored by our
members. We call
ourselves members of the
"Bicycle
Community" or "Bicycle
Family".
