How did the Pennsylvania league end an amazing season? With an event dedicated to building community and fun!
This PICL adventure isn’t about timing, place, or podiums. It’s about riding with friends. It’s about the joy of being with your teammates on bikes.
This final season event brought teams together to collect checkpoints around the venue as a group. Teams could opt into one of four objectives; a mild ride to collect 5 checkpoints, a medium ride to collect 10 checkpoints, a spicy ride to collect 20 checkpoints, or a “muy caliente” ride where they collected all 30 checkpoints! Teams chose their challenge and designed their route for a day of fun and adventure. The event ended with a season wrap-up celebration and awards under the night sky at Raystown Lake beach.
How have your teams celebrated with adventure this year?
