Oregon Club Tour
Birch Goose
This great tour travels Oregon's
quaint towns, scenic back roads, and lush mountain ranges. Some
Oregon cyclists consider days 2 & 3 of this year’s Club Tour
the best cycling in the State.
Saturday is commute day from Sacramento
to Shasta Middle School in Eugene. Sunday we'll pass through the
small town of Sweet Home and stay the first night at the Sunnyside
Campground, with showers and a lake for swimming. Monday,
we'll travel along the river and Green Peter Reservoir. It's
very scenic and offers some great views of Mt Hood. The road narrows
to nearly a bike trail, with no traffic except our SAGS. We'll
be staying at the Detroit Lakes Campground in the town of
Detroit. Tuesday has us on back roads again for
most of the day to the town of Estacada, and to the Estacada High
School.
Wednesday to McMinnville on
lightly traveled roads into
the Willamette Valley to the Evergreen Aviation Museum
Campground. Thursday's layover day allows you to see the amazing
museum and Howard Hughes’ Spruce Goose, play some golf, or go into
town and check out the local action.
For Friday, only 70 mi and 3,350 ft of
climbing gets you to Philomath High School. Saturday, the final day,
is only 41mi back to Shasta Middle School for the last night before
heading home Sunday morning.
