8/13/26 – Thursday Night Ride (Adam & Nancy’s Paninis)
Join us August 19th at Freeze Thaw Cycles for a townie MTB ride. There are some sweet, twisty and fun MTB trails just outside of Sunset Park. It should be a great time and your friends at Penns Valley Pedals and Pints will be there along the way. We’ll meet up after the ride at the Freeze Thaw Cycles shop for grilling and chilling! Arrive around 5:30pm to take a look around the shop. Bring a mountain bike, helmet, water and a great attitude!
RSVP and get more details on the event page!
Hi Everyone!
This past weekend’s Link Cyclery ride was great fun! Lots of new faces, delicious picnic food by owner Leroy’s family and 3 winners of the $50 gift certificates – Cimarron Chicon, Curt Buergin and NEW PVPP rider (and new to the area) Bryan Makry.
This week we’re excited to welcome Premiere Cycling Club from Pittsburgh. They’re spending the weekend here in State College and among their other rides and adventures, they’ve decided to ride with us on Thursday night.
