November is almost here, and you know what that means – it’s time for the Ride in the Rain Challenge!! The Challenge isn’t just for bike commuters; all types of bike rides count - so mountain bikers and road bikers are encouraged to join! The Ride in the Rain Challenge presented by  and  as a seasonal challenge that brings teams of ten together to face the drizzle, develop familiarity with winter riding, and stay active during the colder, shorter Pacific Northwest days.

The last time Western participated in the Ride in the Rain Challenge was in 2018, and we are all in need of some collegial camaraderie. In 2018, 48 �������� cyclists rode 2,305 miles, and the Western Washington Psyclists were the team to beat. What team will take the top spot for Western this year?
