Banks and Back (plus Cedar Canyon)

Description

Start at the upper parking lot of REI at the Streets of Tanasbourne, Hillsboro.

Tackle your favorite hills north of the Sunset Hwy., Helvetia, Jackson Quarry and Mason Hill to North Plains, crossing back over the freeway toward Roy and then to Banks for your refreshment break.

An optional 8 miles is easily added by biking the 4 mile out and back on Cedar Canyon, before your break. Eighteen miles of flat roads remain to the start.
