FUN RIDE PACKAGE - 4 RIDES! | All season long

Cycling is on the rise, and the events just keep getting better! What better way to spend time with friends and family than on some of Portland's best fun rides? With this four-ride package, you'll be sending your friends on the Worst Day of the Year Ride, the Hottest Day of the Year Ride, the Night Ride and Tour de Lab. All four rides feature short urban routes and most of them have a challenge option for people who want a more intense ride.

We chose these four because they are signature Portland rides: great support, quirky themes, hundreds of fun riders, great courses and yummy food along the way. They're also relatively flat, very accessible and great for new riders.  This is such a fun way to stay fit and have fun - and it's a gift that keeps on giving all season long - for only $99 (that's a $26 savings off the regular registration rate).  

Do you have friends who are just starting to ride more? Perfect. Friends who ride events already? Perfect. Friends who wish they ride more? Even more perfect. You just can't go wrong with this great package. Buy them today for everyone on your list.

WORST DAY OF THE YEAR RIDE | February 15, Portland

On the worst day of the year, where will you be? Curled up on the couch with a blanked and a book? We don't think so. You can't miss the Worst Day of the Year Ride, an 18-mile odyssey around downtown Portland, rain or shine. You'll be kept warm and comfy at every turn with tons of belly-nourishing treats including hot cocoa, doughnuts, fruit, Dragonfly Chai, veggie chili, hot soup, fresh foccacia bread, Nossa Familia coffee, bagels, hot cider and much more.

Join hundreds of other hardy souls as they laugh at the elements and gather for a delicious finish line party at the Lucky Labrador. Want more of a challenge?  The optional 40-mile route loop traverses the west hills out to Hillsboro.  The ride is capped at 3,000 riders and it will sell out, so buy gift certificates to make sure all your buddies are there with you. 

REACH THE BEACH | May 16, Oregon

Reach the Beach is the major fundraiser for the American Lung Association of Oregon. Every pedal stroke helps promote clean Oregon air and healthy Oregon lungs, making this an extra special gift to give. 

Choose from one of four distance options ranging from 26 to 100 miles.  You and your friends will meander along quiet, gorgeous rural roads in search of a spectacular beach party in Pacific City. Each route features rest stops approximately every 15 miles, two delicious lunch stops and ample support every step of the way.  Reach the Beach is a well supported way to tour the Oregon countryside.

The gift certificate is available at the special early registration discounted rate. It includes the fundraising minimum so your loved ones will be all signed up and ready to ride.

MT. BIKE OREGON | July 17-19 or August 21-23, Oakridge

It's kind of like sleep-away camp, only so much cooler. Mt. Bike Oregon is an all-inclusive weekend getaway. Trails range from beginner to advanced, and experienced guides will help lead the way (and make sure no one gets left behind).

Ride trails all day long! Jump logs! Meet mt. bikers from around the country (and Canada)! Navigate switch backs! Tear it up on some of the nation's best singletrack! New to mt. biking? Check out the clinics and learn the skills you need to tackle the advanced trails.

Register, pack, get there... then you don't have to worry about a thing. You ride, they take care of the rest. And "the rest" includes FREE OREGON BEER in the nightly beer garden, three meals a day, showers, shuttles, camping, entertainment and so much more.  The beer garden will be featuring an array of excellent Oregon-brewed beers, including Ninkasi and Oakshire from Eugene and Oakridge's own Brewer's Union Local 180.

Registration is limited to 300 riders so that everyone has a great experience and the trails aren't crowded.  There are two weekends to choose from, or take our advice and just sign up for both.
