The Ride for a Cause bicycle fundraising event, formerly known as Bikes ‘n’ Brews, is scheduled for Saturday in downtown Medford.

It’s hosted by the Downtown Medford Association and benefits area charities.

The event features a 7-mile Family Ride from downtown to Rogue X and back, a 20-mile ride mainly on the Bear Creek Greenway, a 30-mile ride to Jacksonville’s Doc Griffith Park, a 43-mile ride to Gold Hill and Jacksonville and a 63-mile ride that adds Medford’s southwest hills and eastside farmlands.

The rides start and finish on North Bartlett Street, between Third and Fourth streets. The start times are staggered, but finish times will be around the same time. The rides start on the half-hour beginning at 8 a.m. for the 63-mile ride. The family ride starts at 10 a.m. Volunteers are welcome.

The Rogue Marathon also is taking place at the same time as the rides, ending downtown. The run features a full marathon, half marathon, a 10K run and a kids run. Learn about the run at theroguemarathon.com.

Plans call for a celebration party afterward in Pear Blossom Park, where there will be a beer garden and food trucks. Live music starts at noon.
