The annual CBBC potluck banquet is scheduled for February 27 barring any unforeseen events – major snowstorm (6 feet or more) or funeral at the First Parish Congregational Church in Gorham! Show up after 5 p.m. and be ready to eat at 6 p.m.!
Entertainment for the evening will be the showing of the movie The Bicycle Corps: America’s Black Army on Wheels, which tells of the recollections of two African-American riders, an enthusiastic white officer and a black first sergeant who were part of the US Army’s experiment in the 1890’s to replace horses with popular new “safety bicycles.” The army sent 20 African-American soldiers on a 2000-mile ride from Fort Missoula, Montana to St. Louis, Missouri.

Welcome to the new CBBC website! We have moved to a new web host, which will offer us more flexibility in terms of keeping our site up-to-date. Our new host also offers mailing lists, which will help us keep in touch with you!
These new features will also make it simpler for members to share news (like notices of ride changes, special events, etc). We expect to be adding new things here at a fairly rapid pace… so please check back in!
