We will meet at Fir Street Park where there are bathrooms and then not have to cross Rt 20 in Sisters. MEET AT 9:45 AM , ROLL OUT AT 10:00 AM. It’s a gradual uphill to the Indian Ford Campground where we can stop for a little snack and a group photo before heading back. It’s an out and back for a total 14.0 miles. This will be a fun, easy-pace ride!
