What we’re about
The Evergreen Tandem Club has promoted the joy of tandem riding since 2001. We are a collection of tandem enthusiasts who love to ride in a variety of locations sharing the adventure with others. Our goal is to sponsor and support tandem bicycling events throughout the Pacific Northwest. We post member-led rides, workshops and social events that appeal to those interested in tandems at just about any level. Evergreen Tandem Club rides are open to MeetUp members who ride tandem or want to learn about tandem riding.
We invite you to join our Facebook ETC "Group."
ETC also maintains an **ETC Facebook "Page" **where we include links to our official website events and rides.
