Gravel Ride, Terrebonne, 18 miles, 1,100 feet of gain

This new Dirty Freehub route is way tamer than it sounds: Experimental Rattlesnake. Now don’t you worry, there’s a slim to none chance we will see a rattlesnake. You’ll need to read the Ride Guide for the full backstory, but this route has sweeping mountain views on quiet gravel roads. I am sure we will stop at the Gray Butte Cemetery which includes a marker from 1890.

Here are the full details:

The start is at the North Pier Fishing Area on Haystack Reservoir. So please use the Long/Lat provided in the Ride Guide. This has limited parking so you might end up parking closer to the main road.

This is not meant to be a race but a social outing. After all, it’s nice to chat and get to know other people. The goal is to have fun, meet other people, and sneak in a ride. Ebikes are welcome.

You MUST have the route downloaded and are able to use your device or phone. I plan on riding about 10-12 mph. I will pull out of the start, exactly on the posted start time.

If the weather takes a dive, you can assume we are canceling but we will also post on Meetup page.

Sorry to say, but this is NOT a no drop ride. (Gosh, there are a lot of NOs in that last sentence.) but we WILL regroup a few times. This ride is also unsupported.
