Welcome to Mystic Velo Club

Mystic Velo Club (MVC) is a USA Cycling and USA Triathlon registered club. MVC strives to promote amateur and recreational cycling in Southeastern Connecticut. We host the Mystic Velo Criterium at Ninigret Park RI, and co-host the Whaling City Cyclone in New London CT, and the Three Village Tour in Baltic CT. Our website seeks to provide information useful to members and others that may be interested in cycling.

We welcome new members, whether your goals are to become an elite racer, a regional champion, an aspiring junior, want to give racing a try, or just want to enjoy time on your bike.   We do not require race participation. Members are encouraged to develop cycling skills based on available time, interest, and ability.

Annual dues are used to support club activities. Team uniforms (kits) are available for purchase by members of the club. Our members serve as mentors and information sources for newcomers and experienced riders alike to help those interested in competitive and recreational cycling excel.

  Mystic Velo Masters compete internationally



Mystic Velo Masters Mark Dutka, Kelly Parsons, and Jim Themig are traveling to Sutton, Quebec Province, Canada during 4th of July weekend to race the Coupe des Americques.  This three day, 4 stage race consists of a hill climb, time trial, criterium, and road race.  This race is considered the unofficial North American Masters Championship.  Jim has done the race a few times.  Says Mark Dutka, "some of the guys we race against every week also have done it and are doing it this year. It sounds like a great race in a different location and with Fitchburg the only other option for this weekend it is better suited to Masters riders".  Good luck to all!
