A.R.C.

What this is

About.

An independent, owner-led community for people who ride the ALSO TM-B and TM-Q. Not affiliated with ALSO, Inc.

Why the club exists

The ALSO TM-B is a strange and wonderful object. Pedal-by-wire. Modular frame. Software-defined ride feel. Up to a hundred miles on a charge. A magnesium spine that doubles as the entire chassis. There has never been anything quite like it on the road.

The first deliveries are happening right now, in spring 2026. Which means a small, scattered group of people are — at this exact moment — figuring out what these bikes can do, what their favorite ride modes are, whether to spec the Solo, Utility, or Bench top frame, how Connect+ actually behaves, and where the bike most wants to be ridden.

That figuring-out goes faster, and is more fun, when it happens together.

What we are

A national community of ALSO owners and enthusiasts, organized around regional in-person meetups and one shared digital home. Owners, future owners, people still on the reservation list, and the bike-curious are all welcome.

We’re modeled on the best parts of clubs we admire — NorCal EVs for its cross-brand “if it plugs in, you belong here” warmth, and the Bay Area Rivian Club for its sense that the vehicle is just the excuse to spend a Saturday together.

How it works

  • Join the community. Free. One link, one tap.
  • Find your region. We organize chats by metro area. Wherever you are, you can find others nearby or be the first one there.
  • Ride. Group rides, coffee meetups, gear swaps, trail days. The first event is always free.
  • Share what you learn. Firmware notes, frame swaps, charging stops, photos, route ideas. The bike is new — we get better at it together.

What we’re not

We’re not an official ALSO chapter or partner. We’re not a Rivian club, even though ALSO spun out of Rivian. We’re not a paid membership club — at least not yet. We’re not a marketplace, a forum, or a place to flame the company.

We are a small group of people who think these bikes are interesting and want to ride them with other people. That’s it.

A note on the name

“Also Riders” is a play on “also-rans” — the horses that don’t win the race. We don’t have to be first to belong, and we don’t need to win anything to enjoy the ride. The name is a wink, not a complaint.

Trademarks and independence
