Central Oregon 500+ Road Ride registration opens
The Mt. Bachelor Sports Education Foundation is putting on the 8 th Annual Central Oregon 500+ Road Ride, June 5-June 9. All rides are based out of Bend each day and feature the classic, scenic and sometimes grueling climbs! There are two options each day, 100 miles or 100 km.
This is a perfect event for the rider that is unfamiliar with all the great rides based out of Bend. You don’t have to do all the rides. You can pick and choose.
We will provide rides guides, lunch every day, rest stops with plenty of food, hydration and porta-potties ! We take great care of our riders.
This year, we will have two starting points for the Wednesday and Friday rides. A Westside and Eastside start in Bend. Also, we will begin the McKenzie Pass ride in Sisters. We will have our BBQ for you and your family members (free) on Saturday late afternoon.
