How many rides take you somewhere that’s like nothing you’ve ever seen? McKenzie Pass is not only the most spectacular ride in Central Oregon, it also leads you to a lava-rock moonscape at the top that spreads out before you for miles. It’s stark and barren. It’s awe-inspiring. It’s unlike anything you’ll probably ever encounter on a bike ride again.
But there’s more to this pass than the top. It also showcases forests on both the east and west sides of the Cascades – and after you’ve pedaled through them you’ll know how different they are on the “dry side” and the “wet side.” It also provides at least one lung-expanding climb – two if you do the whole thing out-and-back.
*Note - B group riders can go over the summit if they like, just making sure the guides know your plans.
Friday - Green Ridge - Cloverdale
A - 66 miles; 2600ft
B - 36 miles; 1725ft
Ride with GPS: Group A; Group B
Our ride today takes up to the top of Greenville and then descends and rolls back to the hotel. The A group will split off at and do an addition loop out to Cloverdale and back. All in all, a challenging, but beautiful ride with views of the Cascades around every corner.
Saturday - Mt. Bachelor
A - 54 miles; 3000ft
B - 54 miles; 3000ft
Ride with GPS: Updated Group A and B
One of Central Oregon's most beloved summertime bike routes, the Cascade Lakes Loop around Mt. Bachelor is a challenging and visually stunning ride. Continuous views of the snow-drenched Three Sisters, Mount Bachelor, and Broken Top, not to mention numerous pristine lakes and sparkling roadside streams.
