We welcome cyclists year-round to explore our charming country roads, and rugged alpine climbs on two wheels. Here are a few of the cycling events coming up this Spring. We hope that you will come ride with us.
The Siskiyou Scenic Bike Tour is formerly known as the “Siskiyou Century” is held annually the first weekend in May. This two-day event will be split with pavement rides on Saturday, and 2 gravel rides on Sunday. There are six routes in total and they take riders through many diverse areas such as the Shasta Valley and Lake Shastina, over Scarface Road and through Fort Jones, Montague and past the Little Shasta Church as well as rides up ad around Greenhorn and through Yreka. This annual event, put on by Rotary Club of Yreka, covers a wide array of scenic vistas as well as rest stops, with food and entertainment at the finish.
The Art of Survival Century Bike Ride explores areas of Southern Oregon and Eastern Siskiyou’s Tulelake Basin and Butte Valley areas. Riders can gather and ride through some of the most epic stretches of scenery in Siskiyou. Late May each year you can ride but also stop off and learn about the cultural history, geography, environmental issues, and geology of the area. Riders can participate in a family friendly 13/14 mile up to the 100-mile century rides. All Saturday routes pass through the Laval Beds National Monument with its volcanic landscapes, lava tubes and towering cinder cones. Sunday rides explore the Butte Valley Wildlife area and up to Juanita Lake, enjoying views of Mt Shasta along the way.
