Spring has sprung and
flowers are emerging from the earth in showy colors. Why not enjoy the arrival of spring flowers
with a couple of bike rides that celebrate daffodils and lilacs?
The 37th
Annual Daffodil Classic, organized by the Tacoma Wheelmen Bicycle Club,
is on April 15 and over 200 riders are registered so far. This ride winds its way through the beautiful
Orting valley and surrounding hills.
There are four routes to choose from—enough to please families, recreational
riders, and serious roadies. And there’s
strawberry shortcake waiting for you at the finish line!
Inland Northwest
cyclists welcome spring with the Lilac Century
& Family Fun Ride on April 29.
Organized by the Spokane Aurora Northwest Rotary Club, this 19-year ride
offers a variety of fun, scenic and challenging tours for every level of
rider. There is also a tri-athlete’s
bike/run “brick” option. All
participants can partake in the baked-potato feed at the finish.
The Daffodil and Lilac
rides are not only great early season biking opportunities, they also support
statewide bicycle safety education, Safe Routes to School programming, and
complete streets efforts with a contribution to the Bicycle Alliance of Washington. We all benefit when you sign up for these
rides!
Over twenty event rides
support our mission to grow bicycling statewide. Check our Ride
Calendar for other upcoming rides.
