In recent years, figurehead leader Mike McGrory has lost any actual power he once had over the school. An elusive organization known as "Bike Club" seems to have the greatest influence on happenings at the school. "Bike Club"'s members all have alleged connections with high-ranking crime leaders in Chicago and the surrounding area, but their true identities remain concealed behind ski masks. Along with an association called "Vortex", "Bike Club" has a hand in all aspects of life at Ames High. Their infamous "Pancake Breakfasts” create such a great spike in the crime rate of the surrounding area that the entire city is often evacuated for the event, leaving the town a bicycle ravaged wasteland, sometimes for days on end. The redheaded leader of an unrelated club named "Cycling Club" had this to say of Bike Club and it's workings, "Yeah I pretty much hate Bike Club. Their members' eerie resemblance to the members of Cycling Club is downright bone chilling. Ya moron." “Cycling Club” is a great example of a truly productive Ames High Club. They host weekly rides and often have bake sales to raise money for the local charity "Bikes for Blinds". With corruption running so rampant in other Ames High Clubs, many find it truly an honor to have such an upstanding organization representing Ames High School.
