This scenic loop starts at Hutch’s Bicycle Shop in Bend and follows quiet country roads to the north past grassy farmland and views of the Cascades. The route features a wide variety of terrain—descents, rollers, and flat stretches—as well as several notable hill climbs along Shevlin Park Road, Twin Bridges Road, and OB Riley Road.
The return trip to Bend begins at mile 20 and winds to the south through the small town of Tumalo. If your supplies are running low, swing by the Tumalo Market or grab a bite to eat at El Caporal. Finish off the ride with a cruisy spin down Wall Street, passing expansive views of Drake Park and Mirror Pond on NW Riverside Boulevard.
Post ride: A plethora of eateries, brew pubs, and coffee shops await you (within walking distance) in downtown Bend.
