Road Rides
“Century of Scenery. Century of Spirit.”
This year’s Tour de Outback celebrates the full Oregon Outback Scenic Bikeway century—all 100 miles. Starting at the Lakeview Fairgrounds, home to registration, camping, and Friday’s pre‑party, riders enjoy a gentle warm‑up through town, past the new skate park, and onto the Bikeway.
Medium Route
Long Route
The route climbs to Warner Canyon Ski Area before rolling through the ranching towns of Plush and Adel. Along the way, riders experience pine forests, high desert meadows, lakes, streams, and the sagebrush ascent back to town, highlighted by Deep Creek Falls—all on roads with remarkably little traffic.
Not ready for the full century? The 53‑mile option climbs to Bulls Prairie as soon as you descend from the ski hill, where wildflower meadows await. The return to the Fairgrounds is a near‑continuous downhill—almost. This route includes a portion of the Oregon Outback Scenic Bikeway.
Aid Stations along the routes will be manned by our benefactor Lake County Search & Rescue units.
Each participant must wear a helmet that meets CPSC requirements.
