SOUTHERN OREGON

Ride Workshop - Mixed Terrain Basecamp

Dates TBD

New roads are calling for your next adventure! Our Southern Oregon mixed terrain Basecamp sets you up to tackle stunning paved and gravel terrain out of cozy Ashland, Oregon. Come explore remote gravel roads with thick forests and snow capped volcanoes as your backdrop. This trip will give you a fresh look at riding in the woods on remote loops that seem rarely touched by other travelers. And of course being a Ride Workshop trip you can expect plentiful cafe and bakery stops!

Our Basecamp trips are designed with solid support and allow for tailoring of routes based on the desires of our riders, rather than a one route fits all approach.

"Every aspect of our experience had received thought, attention, and optimization, while the routes offered exciting variety in terrain, road surface, and vistas. When you don't need to worry about where to eat, where to ride, when to start, and how to prepare, you can truly experience a cycling vacation"
