Lyle-Goldendale Loop with Christof Send-off
Description
If you have been lucky enough to ride with Christof this year, you know that we can't let him move back to Germany without a Send-off via the Lyle-Goldendale Loop. If you haven't yet met Christof, this is your last chance
- come on out! We'll meet at the Lyle Trailhead and start with a 10 mile hill climb to warm us up, followed by 56 miles of rollers, for a total of 3370 feet of gain. We're doing the route counter-clockwise, with an optional longer lunch stop at the Glass Onion in Goldendale. This is an all-day ride, so bring plenty of water and snacks to sustain you. Here's what the Oregonian has to say about this ride: "What roadie dreams are made of: quiet, small roads with almost no traffic and a relentless lineup of sweeping canyons and countryside to distract you from your effort." Let the fun begin!
