Every January I put together an unofficial list of road cycling events taking place around the Pacific Northwest (most in our home state of Washington). It's culled from a variety of sources, including personal experiences, suggestions from friends and the huge but frequently outdated list at BikingBis.com . This list covers recreational road events only; it does not include races, gravel/MTB events, fondos or rides organized by bike tour companies.
