Volunteer powered since 1970
Volunteers are essential to every aspect of Cascade and assist in anything from our signature rides to our Free Group Rides program, after-school bike clubs and everything in between. Depending on your interests, skills, or availability, we have a way for you to get involved!

Rides & Events
Get a glimpse behind the curtain and see how rides like Seattle to Portland are made! We're always looking for volunteers for pre-event prep and day-of operations like packet stuffing, start/finish line support, and rest stop leaders.
Outriders
The Cascade Outriders are a highly skilled and experienced volunteer group that provides ride support for logistical, mechanical, traffic, and minor medical incidents in addition to providing information and moral support to riders.
Food Bank Support Rides
Our mission is to deliver pedal-powered food and goods to food-insecure neighbors, all from the seat of a cargo-carrying bicycle. Plus it’s just fun to ride your bike with a purpose! We serve marginalized communities across Seattle.
