Get Your Degree in Cycology

This year we’re heading back to school – Cycle Oregon U., that is, where you can earn a degree in Cycology in just one intense weekend of immersion education. (Maybe even an MBA – Master of the Bicycle Arts!)

Based on the COU campus in Monmouth (known the rest of the year as Western Oregon University), we’ll venture out on loop rides through wine country, along the lower reaches of the Coast Range, and through the verdant flatlands of the Willamette Valley.

You can stay in a dorm room for a preview or reminiscence of the college life, or tent-camp on the lush campus. We’ll have all the amenities Cycle O is known for – live entertainment, great food and drink including a beer garden, unparalleled support and niceties such as on-site massage. We’ll offer our successful Kids’ Bike Camp again this year, too, for the younger ones.

It’s an event that will satisfy everyone from a fun-loving family to a hardcore hammerhead. Whether it’s a training run for the Week Ride or your only chance this year to taste what Cycle Oregon is all about, the Weekend Ride is an ideal experience.
