  • Please Volunteer for the Bikes n Brews Event October 14

    Siskiyou Velo will again provide bike parking for cyclists participating in the October 14 Bikes n Brews event at Pear Blossom Park in Downtown Medford.  Please consider volunteering to help with this event–it’s fun and offers a chance to meet other club members and to promote our club to the public.

    We need four volunteers at a time to manage the parking process and to man the Siskiyou Velo information table.  We need volunteers for the following time slots–8:30 to 11:30 (includes set-up), 11:30 to 2:30, and 2:30 to 5:30 (includes take-down).  If your availability doesn’t  fit into one of these timeslots, please volunteer and let us know what time you are available.

    Bike n Brews is part of the Heart of the Rogue Festival, which showcases our community–there will be music, food, drink, art and vendors.  For more information on the festival, go to https://www.travelmedford.org/heart-of-the-rogue-festival.

    Please respond to me at hbittner3@gmail.com with your time availability.  It will be fun!

    Here are two lists of chip sealing plans for the County this year. The 2023 Chip Seal Listing – alphabetical sort is just the roads in alphabetical order. The 2023 Chip Seal Listing – route order is in the order the County plans to work on the routes (subject to change).

    Here is a link to an article and the lists found on the County website;
