Evergreen Bike Club teaches kids to ride, be ‘good humans'

The 2026 Evergreen Bike Club, which meets during its riding season at the Alderfer/Three Sisters East trailhead every Monday, held its end-of-season party on Oct. 19. Courtesy Evergreen Bike Club From tots straddling Striders to teens locked into their pedals, the 150 current members of the Evergreen Bike Club are bucking a national trend. They’re learning a love of biking, and not the suburban-paved-path style, but mountain biking. And as the smiles at their rides show, they couldn’t care less about what national statistics say.“I love Evergreen Bike Club,” said 8-year-old Parker Fox, whose dad, James, is a volunteer leader and coach. “Everyone is really nice. It’s fun to learn how to be a better rider and to ride with other kids — as well as my dad.”On a late Octoer evening, Parker is among a swirl of kids on bikes in the parking lot at the Alderferer Three Sisters East trailhead, where the group meets weekly during its six-month season.
