Gravel Ride, Bend, 25 miles, 1,300 feet of gain

Let's sneak out for a lunchtime ride. A nooner that keeps us close to Bend on a Dirty Freehub route called Westside Tour:

It’s a great route to test your navigation, if you get lost, we are pretty sure you will bump into a familiar road with cars soon enough. The start is Drake Park, across from Congress street.

You should have the route downloaded are able to use your device or phone. I plan on riding about 10-11 mph. I will pull out of the park exactly at noon.

If the weather takes a dive, you can assume we are canceling. Note to ebikes: There's a super short section that is single track. I will lead you around that so we stay legal!

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.
