Welcome to CentreBike
Whether you're pedaling to work, shredding singletrack, or cruising the back roads—this is your community.
Since 2000, CentreBike has been the voice for cyclists of all speeds and styles in the Centre Region. We're riders just like you, working to make the greater State College area a place where everyone feels safe and welcome on two wheels.
We host events, advocate for better bike infrastructure, push for safer streets, and work alongside local leaders to keep improving our community's bike-friendliness. Because at the end of the day, we all share the same passion: we love to ride.
Ready to join us? Let's make the Centre Region an even better place to cycle.
