pursue his his engineering career. By that time he had also reached the semi-pro level in gravity mountain bike competition. His career in industry included finished wood products, plastic extrusion, electronics and finally chemical manufacturing. All the while Plews focused on endurance cycling and reached the highest levels of the sport domestically. In 2003 he reached professional level of mountain bike competition. He continued to progress as a road cyclist and eventually reached category 1 level. In 2008, Evan left engineering to follow a new career as a stay at home parent. He continued to race to a national championship and many other brilliant results. During that same time he satisfied his yearning to share his passion for cycling through the management of one of the most successful grassroots race teams in OBRA history. While the team struggled to find sponsorship after the 2008 recession, Plews funded the team and weathered the storm with the help of many friends in and outside of the bicycle industry. As his children reached school age, Evan began to follow his longtime dream of owning a community bicycle shop by purchasing commercial property in Dallas, Oregon and beginning a two year process of demolition and construction. In early 2013, plans took a dramatic turn as the decision was made to move to Wenatchee, Washington. While the environment may be very different, Evan's passion is universal: to share the joy and rewards of cycling with as many folks as possible we continually striving to take performance and service to a higher level. We invite you to visit Ridge Cyclesport and share in our celebration of this amazing adventure!
