OUTPEDAL – Last Sunday’s Outdoors feature on regional bicycling events included a list of regional bicycling groups.

Unfortunately, an editing error omitted the venerable Spokane Bicycle Club, which was at the top of the list.

“We've been an active biking club for over 35 years with a membership of around 200,” said Don Carlton, club president.  The group has adopted mile 31 of the Centennial Trail and provide reliable support for all things related to bikes in the area.

“We offer seven rides a week in various skill levels. We host the bike coral for Bloomsday, bike sitting for over 200 bikers, as well as the registration for SpokeFest.”
