The Ride
Bennett Pass to the end of Surveyors Ridge via some the best trails on Mt Hood. Along the way ride leaders will help you navigate the trails. Aid stations will be there to support you. A best of all there will be a celebration party at the Saw Tooth Roadhouse.
Plan to ride 50 miles, use a map, and be in the saddle for 6 hrs. This is not a race, but it requires that you come prepared.

Tarbell-Star Mountain (event)

An all day ride with a sick amount of climbing (but no worse then the "Big Ride") and great views at the top of Star Mountain. Ride is contingent on the trail being open after the recent fire. Meet at the south end of the gateway park and ride (the usual spot) at 8 am. Leaving the parking lot no later than 8:10 am.

Casual pace. Think "fun" not fast. "Laughs" not burning lungs. LIGHTS NOT REQUIRED - we are back long before dark.
** Sign-up if you plan to ride. If no sign-ups, then ride most likely gets cancelled. (login to sign-up) **
Opportunity for beginners to ride along (you'll need basic mountain bike handling skills down at least - "ready" position, shifting, braking, "look where you want to go" but happy to give tips) - we can split up so that those who don't want to ride intermediate singletrack can ride the Caddy Whomper Way corridor instead (we'd re-group about 1 mile later to ride as group again). It's hard to get lost since just the one trail! NOBODY GETS LEFT BEHIND!
