Raider Ride Will Take Cyclists on a Wild Campus-to-Campus Trip Oct. 1

If you love tight pants and the wind in your hair, Pierce College is the place to be Oct. 1. Pierce College’s Raider Ride will take cyclists on a leisurely journey from Pierce College Puyallup, through the wilds of Puyallup, Spanaway, Parkland, and Lakewood, to Pierce College Fort Steilacoom. 

This 20-mile, campus-to-campus ride is easy, fun, and open to all riding levels. For more experienced riders, a 50-mile loop is available from Pierce College Fort Steilacoom. (Maps of both routes are available on the Raider Ride website.)

There is no cost to participate. Riders will be asked to sign a waiver, however. Ride leaders and sweeps will keep the groups together and ensure everyone stays on course. In addition, a support and gear vehicle will accompany each ride.

A free barbecue with hot dogs and refreshments will follow at Pierce College Fort Steilacoom.
