Non-Club Event Rides Approved for Club Mileage
The board has determined which non-club event rides will earn club mileage for 2025. Only five were chosen, so if you see others that you think club members would enjoy, don’t hesitate to submit them to the board (login required) for consideration. Here are the selected rides:
| Date | Event Ride | Sponsor | PBC Ride Leader |
| Sunday, 4/27 | Monster Cookie Metric Century | Salem Bicycle Club | Ann Morrow |
| Saturday, 5/17 | Reach the Beach | American Lung Association | Cary Fisher (105 miles Portland)
Daniel Payne (105 miles Tualatin) Lynn Blanchard (75 miles) |
| Saturday, 6/21 | Gorge Ride | Friends of the Historic Columbia River Highway | Dick Weber |
| Saturday, 7/26* | Ride Around Clark County (RACC) | Vancouver Bicycle Club | Todd McCollum |
| Sunday, 8/10 | Covered Bridge Bicycle Tour | Mid-Valley Bicycle Club | Scott Poindexter |
✎ Please participate in these rides. Several have multiple distances available, so there should be a fun route for everyone. We want you to expose yourself to new experiences, new scenery, new people, and new porta-potties. You pay the fee for registration, agree to behave yourself out on the road, and a whole new world opens up for you! You got this! Some of your faithful club members will be there to support you through your anxieties.
We want Salem, Vancouver, and Mid-Valley bike club members to come and ride with us on PIONEER CENTURY®. We need to show up for them and their events in return.
Ann Morrow, President

* Date conflict: The RACC occurs on the same date as Bud Rice’s Manzanita/Nehalem Bay/Tillamook Weekend. So many rides, so few summer weekends!
