Different Spokes is a bicycling club for the LGBT community and their friends in the Seattle/Puget Sound area. For a one-time fee of $5, you can become a member, which allows you to post/access bike rides and social events on our calendar*, discuss club activities on our message board, and share photos. To join, you sign up here. *Note: The calendar is best viewed in Mozilla Firefox.

Volunteerism is the basis of Different Spokes. You lead our rides, serve on our board, and organize our social events. The money from membership fees goes solely toward the maintenance of our website. For additional information on Different Spokes, check out the FAQ and Club Info sections. If you still have any questions, you can contact us.

Simply look through our calendar and pick the ride that interests you. If you have any question about the ride, you can contact the ride leader beforehand. You must wear your bike helmet and obey traffic laws.

Lead a ride! To find out how, consult the "Ride Leader Tips" in our Rides section. And our board always needs new faces and fresh ideas! To serve as a club officer, attend a board meeting or contact us.

A great way to meet new people is to join us for a ride. We're an easygoing group that welcomes new riders. By yourself or with a friend, you'll have a great time!
