The Eastern Tandem Rally is a volunteer group of tandem cycling enthusiasts who rally together to ride and socialize at tandem events held in the Northeastern United States. It is the oldest organization of its kind in North America and has sponsored an annual tandem rally (almost) continuously since 1973.
The ETR organization currently sponsors three tandem bicycle rallies.
