Our History

1979: Suzy Truax and some cycling friends named their cycling group “the Procrastinating Pedalers.”

1988, March 2: the “Procrastinating Pedalers of Reno” was incorporated as a non-profit organization by Kevin DeWolfe, Bruce MacKay, and Frank Cronick.

2024: The club officially changed its name to the Reno-Tahoe Pedalers.

Bart Kluck designed the original Pedaler jersey(seen above) featuring a Washoe Zephyr blowing across the Truckee Meadows.
