Cycle Oregon

NOTE: Cycle Oregon 2010 is sold out; route announcement and open registration for 2011 will occur in late January/early February. Look for dates at www.cycleoregon.com starting late in 2010. The 2010 ride sold out 2,000+ spots in just SEVEN DAYS, so don’t miss your window of opportunity if you want to come along in ’11!

It’s the Round-Up Ride – a two-state ramble through the canyons, wheat fields, vineyards and forests of northeastern Oregon and southeastern Washington that includes a two-day stop in Pendleton during the 100th anniversary of the Pendleton Round-Up (and we’ve reserved 2,000 tickets!). Starting and ending in the historic host town of Elgin, the route includes stops in Enterprise, OR; Clarkston, WA; Waitsburg, WA; and Pendleton, OR.

How does it work? You pedal; we’ll take care of everything else. Beautiful campsites, plentiful food, hot showers, massage, cold microbrew, Oregon wine, live entertainment and a fully supported route. Roughly 450 miles total if you ride on the layover days.

Cycle Oregon is a nonprofit event, with all net proceeds going to the Cycle Oregon Fund, which has an endowment of more than $1 million and has distributed well over a million dollars to towns, organizations and bicycle-related causes in Oregon throughout its history.
