‘Tour of Aufderheide’ shows Oakridge area not just for mountain biking

Foresty.(Photos © J. Maus/BikePortland) Oakridge might be one of the premiere mountain biking destinations in the country; but did you know that there’s also lots of fun to be had on a road bike in that neck of the woods?

Mountain Bike Oregon photo gallery

Due to troubles finding a reliable wi-fi signal in Oakridge, I wasn’t able to post as many stories as I had hoped from Mountain Bike Oregon. I’ve put together a special coverage page and I just finished uploading and organizing all my photos.

Oakridge base camp: The Trailhead

A welcome sight for mountain bikers.(File photo) If Oakridge had an unofficial base camp for mountain biking adventurers, it would be The Trailhead.

I’m moving to Oakridge

On Alpine Trail.(File photo) Just finished my first day of riding down here at Mountain Bike Oregon in Oakridge. The trails are out of this world and my tent is set up mere feet from the rushing of the green-blue Willamette River (and just a few yards from the beer garden). I left Portland (very) … Read more
