Our Mission
Inspired by the legacy of our namesake, Marshall "Major" Taylor, the Major Taylor Houston Cycling Club (MTHCC) is a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to advancing the sport of cycling as a catalyst for health, well-being, and community growth. We believe in the power of the bike to transform lives, supporting both the community of cycling and the community at large through social advocacy, recreational excellence, and intentional service.
The Experience
The Summer Sizzle is our premier annual charity event—a four-day celebration of culture, grit, and camaraderie. It is more than just miles on the road; it’s a moment to come together. It’s a social gathering and a shared blessing, where cyclists from around the country unite around a common passion for riding and a commitment to making a difference.
Why Join Us?
When you ride the Sizzle, you are pedaling with purpose. Proceeds benefit local Houston initiatives, providing positive health and well-being benefits to our city. Whether you’re a seasoned racer or a weekend warrior, you are invited to join a peloton that values service as much as speed.
Feel the heat. Find your tribe. Join us in making a difference, one ride at a time.
