AboutChinook Cycling Club originated in 1986 for cyclists who enjoy the sporting aspects of cycling, including both national level competitive cycling and regional recreational competition. Over the years the club has grown, and the range of interests has expanded with it. However, we still retain our original focus as a club whose primary activities revolve around the sporting aspects of cycling. Our current membership includes riders with a wide range of interests and abilities, including some who are members of USA Cycling (formerly United States Cycling Federation), the national level competitive cycling organization. Club activities include: spring road training events, spring/summer time trial series, fall mountain bike events, trail maintenance, and trail building. Local groups that Chinook Cycling Club currently support include the Tri-City Bicycle Coalition, Friends of Badger, and Toys for Tots.

2016 Membership and Time Trial Forms
2016 FALL MOUNTAIN BIKE TRAINING SERIES
This years Fall MTB Training Series begins on September 24th with the Badger Mountain Hill Climb and Loop Events. We have added a new event this year in Walla Walla, Bennington Lake, in addition to the usual events at Chamna, Columbia Park and Echo, OR. All you need to participate is to be a current member of Chinook Cycling Club. Membership forms can be found on this web page. If you are not a member yet, please fill out the forms and mail them in before the first event. It is a whole lot easier on me and my helpers if we have your membership on file before you get to the first event. Craig Groendyke

The Badger Mountain Event had 51 riders. Thanks to all who came out an challenged themselves on the hill. Well done to the young riders who were doing their fist ever Event. Also a couple of adults did their first Event. What a way to start. The events at Badger MTN are HARD work.
A Big THANK YOU to the Event sponsor: Leaning H Bike. Be sure and thank Heather when next time you're in Leaning H Bike. Another Thank You goes to Ice Harbor Brewing Company who also contributed to the door prizes.
An event like this doesn't happen without a lot of help. I would like to thank the following folks: Brad Atencio Francis Buck, Anne Farawila, Richard Grondin, and Steve McDuffie for helping me set up the course markings; Francis, Richard and Steve for being course marshals; Greg Turpin for running rider sign in and being the Hill Climb starter; Rodney Huffman for helping out and acting as starter for the Loop Event; Bekah Cooley and Elizabeth Groendyke for taking care of new membership; and finally Clint Andring for helping me take down course markings.
Event # 2: Bennington Lake, October 8th, PARKING AND RIDER SIGN IN HAS CHANGED. We will now park at the parking lot at Bennington Lake. From HWY 12 take the Airport Way exit, turn right. Just past Walla Walla Community College Baseball Field you will cross over Mill Creek. After you cross Mill Creek, turn left on to Reservoir Road. Drive up the hill to the parking lot just west of the lake.
The Bicycle Barn is the Event Sponsor and Jarrod Sumerlin and the Washington State Penitentiary Wellness Committee will set up course markings. That is a huge help to me. Thank you! Make sure you thank the folks at Bicycle Barn for being a sponsor.
The Event will consist of: A 1.0 mile run up to the lake, followed by a 8.4 mile loop around the lake. Beginners will ride 9.4 miles, Sport will do 17.8 miles and Experts will ride 26.2 miles.
