Highlands Pedalers

The Highlands Pedalers is a bicycle club for the Sebring, Avon Park and Lake Placid areas of Central Florida.  We provide a regular weekly RIDE SCHEDULE, SPECIAL BICYCLING EVENTS, SOCIAL EVENTS, MEMBERSHIP BENEFITS, and a forum where people who ride bicycles for recreation, fitness, commuting, and sport can interact. We are affiliates of the national and state advocacy organizations, the League of American Bicyclists and the Florida Bicycle Association.



Meetings are generally held the first Thursday of each month at the Kenilworth Lodge in Sebring at 7:00 pm.

Welcome to the Highlands Pedaler’s website.  To ensure that this site will be current and accurate club activities and website content will be reviewed during each club meeting, additions and corrections will be decided upon, and will be updated shortly after the meeting.  We invite all who are club members who have an interest to attend club meetings. If you have suggestions for improvement to the club's ride schedule, programs, events, meetings, website, etc. please contact me at camprx@hotmail.com .           Red Camp,  President
