I thought PCT meant Perfect Cycling Trail!
In seriousness, though, it is still a long time off. The Forest Service has indicated it may be interested in investigating opening parts of the trail to bikes. It is just in the talking stage now, no timeline yet. The entire trail will never be opened as it passes through many Wilderness Areas and National Parks (opening those areas to bikes is another ongoing issue not to be resolved soon). The various PCT organizations are staunchly opposed, of course. Like any special interest group they resist any change from the status quo. I am sure ol' Mike Vandeman is absolutely apoplectic over the proposal -- his anti-bike histrionics are legendary and sometimes rather amusing.
In some areas, the Forest Service has not been enforcing the current ban and largely ignoring bike use, save for the occasional knucklehead that abuses the trail and gives all bike riders a bad image. So for the interim follow the current regulations and stay off the PCT, while actively trying to change the regulations.
