_ The 2018 Pennyrile Area Cyclists - PAC Challenge:

Join us on Saturday, July 28, for our 14th Annual PAC Challenge. 

This year all riders begin with a mass start at 8:00AM from 109 Sugg Street, adjacent to the skatepark, in downtown Madisonville, KY.   Our routes include a 7, 20, 35 and a more challenging 60 mile option. 

Our 7 mile route is a family friendly option that travels just west of town before looping back to the start at Sugg Street.  

The 20 and 35 options travel through the scenic and somewhat hilly, rural roads of Hopkins County, KY.  

The 60 mile route offers a more challenging option as it travels through the scenic and hillier areas of North Hopkins and East Webster County. 

All routes are open to motor vehicle traffic, but are generally low traffic areas.  All riders are responsible for obeying all traffic laws, and strongly encouraged to be mindful of approaching traffic.

Full vehicle SAG support and rest stops are supplied for the 20, 35 and 60 mile routes.

All riders are required to wear a USCPSC approved helmet!!

Madisonville is located just 49 miles south of Evansville, IN; 35 North of Hopkinsville, KY; 82 miles West of Paducah, 104 miles Northwest of Nashville, TN; and 153 miles southwest of Louisville, KY.

All proceeds from PAC Challenge will enable PAC to brighten a child’s holiday by purchasing bicycles for children in need in our community.
