Gravel Bicycle Ride: Tumalo Reservoir, 31 miles and 1,200 feet of gain
Details
I spy a good day to ride. So why not join us for Coffee Run gravel route; we are spinning from Tumalo Reservoir to Sisters and back. It’s the perfect route for a group ride, especially because we will stop in Sisters for some coffee! Here’s the Dirty Freehub Ride Guide:

To find the start, you are better off using the start from this Strava file (which shows the pull out on Couch Market where it almost intersects with Sizemore.).

If the single track is muddy in Sisters, we will skip this section and stay on the major roads in and out of Sisters.
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.
This is a paid event ($10). If you’ve donated to Dirty Freehub in the past 12 months, use the promo code “Coffee” for free entry. (We use this funding specifically to pay for the insurance that we need to run events.)
If the weather takes a dive, you can assume we are canceling but we will also post a message on the 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.
