Full Moon Fever Cycling & Social Club
|
We are a small community of friends who enjoy cycling along quiet bike trails during clear nights & big open skies.
Our goal is to find & share the best routes & points-of-interest for cycling enthusiasts, especially riders who like to cycle when the routes are less busy (e.g at night). |

About The Club Name
|
The club name tips its hat to the movie E.T. and Tom Petty's Full Moon Fever.
In E.T. the 'flyin high to the moon' scene is iconic and impressionable. And anyone in growing up in the late 80's, songs like 'Free Fallin', 'I won't back down' and 'Feel a whole lot better' got a lot of air play. So about the name. Substituting E.T.'s basket for a bike trailer & borrowing from the colours from Tom Petty's first solo album, and we have the ingredients for Full Moon Fever Cycling & Social Club. |
