8/7/25 – Thursday Night Ride (Dubbs Grub)

Link Cyclery LogoPVPP invites you to join us on a casual ride of the Buffalo Valley Rail Trail on SATURDAY, August 9th to Link Cyclery. We’ll leave from behind Rusty Rail at 10:30am. This is a 16.4 mile ride (although, you are welcome to continue to ride it end to end for a little extra milage).

Pop inside Link Cyclery to check out their BIKE SALE! Eye up your next ride or shop needed gear in their amazing 2-floor store (with women’s specific LIV bikes and accessories section!). Remember to THANK Leroy and his staff for sponsoring our club and helping to make this all possible!

Hi Everyone!

We missed last week due to a forecast we were not so confident in. This week, however, looks great! We’re planning to head through the Millheim Narrows for another beautiful ride through Rebersburg. We’re working on getting the fire company to follow us through.

BIG NEWS FROM THE FIRE CO!
They’re pouring concrete under the pavilion this Thursday, so we won’t be able to use the pavilion. They’ve moved the tables and benches back to the building so BYOC – Bring Your Own Chair and we’ll tailgate in the gravel area! Dubbs Grub Food Truck and Elk Creek Beer will be ready to serve!

BYOC – Bring Your Own Chair
Dubbs Grub!

Dubbs Grub is back for their final appearance of the season. No tables and benches this week so bring a chair and your appetite for smash burgers, hot chicken, street tacos and so much more…and we’ll dine tailgate style!

Safety Note: We’ll be riding through the narrows, hopefully with a fire truck escort to hold back traffic. Please make your way through quickly but safely. Also, please single up along route 192 for everyone’s safety. Thanks!
