[3] ADVANCED RIDE: LOGE -> Mt. Bachelor -> LOGE Loop

🏔️ ADVANCED RIDE: LOGE ➡️ Mt. Bachelor ➡️ LOGE Loop 🚴‍♀️⚡
Are you and your e-bike up for the challenge?
We’ll head from LOGE Bend up Century Drive toward Mt. Bachelor with a solid, sustained climb, followed by twisty loops around Kiwa Butte, then a rewarding descent back to LOGE.

When:

• Snow is fully melted on Century Drive and Kiwa Butte loops
• Trails are dry and not muddy
• Temps are at least 55–65°F at elevation

📆 Saturday, June 21, 2025
🕘 9:00 AM meetup, wheels rolling by 9:30 AM
This gives time for the sun to warm things up and avoids icy morning temps.

Where: LOGE Bend (check meetup spot in front of the main lodge)
Distance: 26 miles
Elevation Gain: 2,135 ft
Estimated Duration: ~2.5 hours

Roughly half the ride is unpaved, so gravel-capable e-bikes are recommended.
⚡ What you'll need:

• Fully charged e-bike (Class 1 or 3) - larger battery (>750W) is recommended!
• Off-road capable tires (gravel or MTB preferred)
• Helmet (required)
• Water, snacks, layers, and a good attitude
• Optional: GoPro or camera for epic photos!

🎯 Who’s this for?
Riders with good fitness and some experience with longer climbs and mixed terrain. If you’ve been craving a beautiful challenge in the Cascades—this is it!
