Monster Cookie Defies Rain
More than 560 cyclists rode away from McNary High School on Sunday, April 28, to join the 48th Monster Cookie Metric Century Bicycle Ride.
The event, the Salem Bicycle Club's top fundraiser each year, followed a new route this year. McNary High School served as the start/finish and riders pedaled east into Marion County with stops at the Willamette Pie Company, Mt. Angel Middle School, and Trinity School.
Early review of registrations showed that 562 of 586 registered riders showed up despite cold, rainy weather. And, 86 percent of them were non-club members.
