Hi there! Feel free to drop us a text if you enjoy the episode.
In this episode of the New England Endurance Podcast, we head down to one of the most iconic riding destinations in New England — Cape Cod.
Host Art Trapotsis sits down with Kim Pzegeo, President of the Cape Cod Cycling Club (otherwise known as C4), and Michele Kjoller, longtime member and board member, to explore how a small group ride with just a handful of cyclists grew into a thriving and welcoming cycling community.
We dive into the origins of the club — from its early days as a small, race-focused group to its evolution into a club built around inclusivity, community, and “all kinds of cycling for all kinds of people.”
Kim and Michele share what makes riding on Cape Cod so special, from scenic coastal routes and sunset views to rides that pass by 11 beaches in a single loop.
We also cover:
- Weekly group rides for all levels — from beginner-friendly social rides to faster-paced training groups
- Where to ride on the Cape, including local favorites like Hyannis, Osterville, Wellfleet, and Provincetown
- How visitors can join rides while vacationing on the Cape
- Favorite routes, hidden gems, and what makes the Cape a truly unique place to ride.
Whether you're planning a cycling trip to Cape Cod or just looking to connect with a welcoming endurance community, this episode offers a great look at what makes the Cape Cod Cycling Club so special.
