The Ride

Seven Feathers Casino Resort, nestled among tall Douglas firs and pine trees, just off Interstate 5, at exit 99, in Canyonville, Oregon, is the beginning of the Takelma Gravel Grinder. Riders will ride a 57-mile Bold route. The ride begins by taking riders through the doors of the casino before rolling towards the town of Canyonville and onto rural, Tiller Trail Highway. Passing farm and ranch landscapes along the South Umpqua River, soon you’re into the gravel experience with the first climb of the ride. A challenging 1.3-mile KOM climbing effort 9% average gain, then cresting to a spectacular valley view of Days Creek.  During the ride, aid stations with electrolyte drinks and food will be provided, as well as SAG vehicles.

Riders will continue on towards Chief Miwaleta Park and along the scenic view of Galesville Reservoir. We then return to Seven Feathers Casino Resort to relax at Squatchee Fest, formerly the Bites, Blues & Brews Festival, enjoying food and beverage from the Seven Feathers Food Truck, compliments of the race organizers.
