Easy-Paced Sisters Short Ramble – Road Ride – 20 miles
September 7, 2022 @ 1:30 am - 3:30 am
I love this fun little loop on the quiet country roads outside of Sisters with amazing scenery and an awesome countryside. It is a condensed version of the longer Sisters Ramble as we will be starting at Aspen Lakes Golf Club.
We will meet in the parking lot of the Aspen Lakes Golf Club – 16900 Aspen Lakes Dr Sisters. The restroom is available. There is also a vault toilet at the Fryrear Trailhead where we will stop and take a short break. It is about 11 miles into the ride.
Ride Level: Advanced Beginner
Length of Ride: 20 miles with an elevation gain of 545ft
Terrain: Fully paved on mostly low traffic roads
Pace: Easy, social pace of 10-12mph with periodic stops as needed
For Safety: Bring lights for your bike, a helmet, a rear-view mirror and flat tire repair kit.
Note: We will cross Hwy 20 twice, so be careful. We will ride on Hwy 126 for about 1.5 miles – the shoulder is wide, but we need to ride single file.
Be Ready to Roll at 8:30. Arrive 15 minutes prior for a pre-ride meeting.

It is helpful to download the route prior to the ride and see where the elevation gain is located.
Cancelation Notice: Rain/Air Quality of 100 or above will cancel this ride. Look for an update by 7:00am on the morning of the ride.
