2013 Weekend Ride Routes

“Summer Camp Sojourn”

One of the glories of the Willamette Valley is the nearly endless variety of riding routes you can put together there – and this year’s Weekend Routes are testament to that versatility.

Day One heads east, crossing fertile fields and following flowing rivers; you’ll pass through tiny historic settlements you probably never knew existed. If you take the long route you’ll also see one of the most attractive covered bridges in Oregon. It’s a pretty easy spin of a day, in a beautiful landscape.

On Day Two the compass points more north, following the foothills of the Coast Range. A short, rousing climb up through the forest is the prelude for a day of natural bounty that includes a wildlife preserve, quiet back roads and a mosaic of rolling topography. This day will test your legs a bit more than yesterday, but the rewards are ample.
