About

Not your typical supported Saturday century. Not Seattle to Portland.

Not a race, but a journey. A symphony through the lush Willamette Valley.

 

You can ride fast. You can ride slow. We'll still be there to celebrate you at the finish line either way. 

Riders are provided a marked course and aid station/control points approximately 20-40 miles apart. In between those support checks, riders can access convenience stores and other neutral amenities along the course as needed. The 200-mile route boasts over 10,000 feet of climbing and features several sections of challenging gravel roads, while the 100-mile route checks in just around 6,000 feet of climbing and has no gravel. Both courses offer scenic views of the Cascades Mountain range and run alongside the Swift Santiam and Calapooia Rivers.

This event begins and ends in Lebanon, Oregon. Participants will roll out in a mass start before being set loose to explore the rolling back-roads and steep vistas of the mid-Willamette Valley. 200-mile riders begin at 5am, and the 100-mile AND 50-mile riders begin at 9am. Riders can provide one drop bag, no larger than a gallon size zip-lock, that will be transported to a designated control point by event officials. Checkpoint and course-cut offs will be implemented throughout the day to keep riders safe and accounted for. 

Riders are allowed, and encouraged, to help one another with mechanical or other support needs. There is no access for outside team support on course other than at the designated control points. Any rider who does not meet the checkpoint cut-off, or those needing to pull themselves from the course, may do so at any checkpoint. Riders are encouraged to arrange for a friend or family member to pick them up if necessary.

Hill Climb Time Trial

Feeling extra strong this season? Join us for a magical kickoff the evening before your big Saturday ride.

The Hill Climb Time Trial takes place Friday night. Participants will race a "typical" Hill Climb TT course (typical in that there's climbing, but there's a lot of it at the end), and then race their event on Saturday. Participant's combined times from both days will be calculated for a best overall time in each category. 

4.0 miles. 720 feet of vert. (580 ft of that in the last 1.5 miles with an average grade of 7.0%)
