Pacesetters

PMC Winter Cycle Pacesetters are the PMC Winter Cycle's top fundraisers. They exceed their fundraising commitment to reach the annually determined Pacesetter level.

The 2026 Pacesetter level is $1,500, which is three times the fundraising commitment of one PMC Winter Cycle session ($500 commitment per session).

Pacesetter Gift

Each spring, PMC Winter Cycle Pacesetters are given a gift in appreciation of their fundraising efforts. Pacesetter gifts are given after the fundraising minimum deadline (April 1, 2026).

The 2026 gift is a New Balance athletics shoe bag featuring the PMC Winter Cycle Pacesetter badge. It is a durable, compact bag designed to securely store and transport bike shoes or sneakers, featuring breathable vents, a dual-zipper closure, and a convenient carry handle. Made from sturdy nylon/polyester with iconic New Balance branding, it keeps dirty footwear separated and fresh while protecting other gear.
