Ride is a loop
End location: Rooster Rock Stae Park
Ever wondered how to bike to Rooster Rock State Park east of Portland? A clothing optional beach in the Columbia River Gorge with full river access, lagoon and sand bar, an 18 hole disk Golf course (clothed) and fun clothing optional single tracks. 35 mile round trip. Brisk casual pace, no drop ride. We will break for snacks or food cart. Route: Stark to Corbett with a bomb down to 84 then four miles of shoulder riding. The return trip is mostly flat, eight miles of shoulder riding and a historic viewpoint. The goal is a return to Troutdale by dark. Halsey Bike lanes for the return trip, with the 77 bus line available. Expect noise, debris, and wonderful views. The wide shoulder has plenty of room past the rumble strip and is legal to ride on. No entry fee, but bring everything one needs for flat repair and a fun day at the beach. Optional food cart stop there or on return trip.
