Major Taylor LA & Nelson Vails Cycling Celebration

---

Tour de Palm Springs MTLA “Ride with Nelly” Black History Month Cycling Celebration This group event is for all cycling fitness levels ~ February 2023

Please join us for a fun cycling fitness weekend in and around Palm Springs, CA in celebration of Black History Month. I hope that all the Major Taylor clubs, as well as all other cycling clubs can come out and represent by wearing their Club kits.

I am honored to be the only African American to win an Olympic medal in cycling and who is still active in the cycling world today. I sure look forward to meeting and riding with all of you.

This is an annual event for the Major Taylor Cycling Club Los Angeles.

They will be out in force and assisting with the after-ride parties. They hope to enjoy the sun and fun with their East Coast cycling friends.
