Pedal Power Instructions
It's easy to turn your miles into money with Pedal Power! Get started today.
Every year Bike Works friends at Cascade Bicycle Club produce some of the largest and most recognized bicycling events in the Pacific Northwest. Together, we invite you to support Bike Works this year on any Cascade Bicycle Club ride.
In previous years, motivated riders have raised funds by riding for Bike Works.
How it works
STEP 1: Register
Register for any Cascade Bicycle Club event such as the Group Health SEATTLE TO PORTLAND Bicycle Classic, the RSVP - Ride from Seattle to Vancouver, BC and Party or the Flying Wheels SUMMER CENTURY.
STEP 2: Chose Bike Works
In your registration paperwork select Bike Works as the organization for whom you want to ride. By participating in Pedal Power each dollar you raise will help motivate future riders to turn their miles into money.
