Mount Adams Cycling Ride List

Weekly Rides

All weekly rides have finished for the year.  Please watch for start-up dates in spring 2012.

 

Ride List for 2011

Our rides will take you through the many beautiful sights of the Valley including apple, cherry and pear orchards, past vineyards, along hop fields during harvest, and around (or over if you wish) the many scenic ridges the Valley offers.  Additionally, those seeking a more challenging adventure can join our rides that lead up Chinook & Cayuse Pass to Paradise and Sunrise on Mt. Rainier, and loop back to Yakima over White Pass.  Many rides have sag support, and families are encouraged to join at lunch or rest stops.
