We loaded up the car and drove 11 hrs from Montana to Bend, Oregon....our future Home Sweet Home. We are only here for a few days and the wifer is working so it leaves me up to my own devices to see what kind of trouble I can get into during the day.
The 9zero7 was loaded up in the rental minivan and the plan was to put it to use here in Bend. The big question mark revolved around just what kind of opportunities exist for snow biking in the area. As it turns out, quite a few! There are many many miles of groomed multi-use trails that are just about perfect for riding the gordita tires.
I ended up at the Wanoga Sno Park area which is about 13 miles from town and has an extensive trail system out there with multiple loops. Some of the trails look like they are groomed fairly frequently so it makes for some fun, fast riding that occasionally give way to great views of the Cascades, most notably of Mt Bachelor. The possibilities are fun to think about and it was a good day to be out running into different trail users who were a little mystified by some silly biker riding a bike in their playground.
Below is the ride summary:
