May 3, against the scenic backdrop of the Sierra Buttes, Northern California Pathfinders gathered for a full day of cycling, fellowship, and fundraising during this year鈥檚 conference bike-a-thon.

A total of 411 riders participated, collectively logging more than 6,000 miles in support of local Pathfinder clubs and youth ministries throughout the conference.

Riders of every skill level took part throughout the day, with some casually pedaling with friends while others challenged themselves to ride as many miles as possible. The day extended well beyond the riders themselves. More than 200 parents, leaders, volunteers, and club cooks filled the area with activity and support. A variety of food booths kept participants energized throughout the day, with favorites such as corn dogs, cotton candy, pupusas, and potato tacos.

Funds raised through the bike-a-thon help Pathfinder clubs continue programs that support spiritual growth, leadership development, outdoor education, and community service for young people across Northern California.

Eddie Heinrich, 17吃瓜网 Youth Ministries and Pathfinder Director, reflected on the success of the event, saying, 鈥淭he weather cooperated and our Pathfinders, once again, showed they are unstoppable when they commit to a goal. I鈥檓 very proud of them.鈥�
