You know, not every ride needs to feel like a race.
The Oregon Gran Fondo is built differently ... multiple route options ...
rolling terrain.
It can't always be about standing on a podium (which definitely is a plus!)
Think of it as a full day on the bike in one of the best places to ride in Oregon.

Cottage Grove is a town with a story. Yes, it’s host to the Oregon Gran Fondo, but it is oh so much more ...
Long before race day, Main Street played host to one of the most iconic scenes from Animal House, a chaotic parade that’s still part of the town’s identity today. The replica Deathmobile. The toga parties.
That’s one of the things that makes this race a blast. How so?
You’re running through a place that people recognize, remember, and come back to explore. Cottage Grove gives you something to experience before and after the miles.
