“The climb begins immediately out of Lakeview and continues on good gravel, not too steep, with excellent views overlooking the valley below. After the first five miles, the grade lessens, but continues to climb gradually for another 3.5 miles, concluding at a busy intersection where six roads come together and where the Crane Mountain National Recreation Trail crosses.”

“This is a great route that puts you out into some of the most remote areas of the state, with lots of adventure riding and beautiful scenery. Although this version of the OTT is the ‘gravel’ version, don’t let that fool you—most of my time was spent on surfaces I would classify as ‘other than gravel.’ It is hard, technical, and most certainly not a traditional gravel ride.”

This past weekend the OTTA board met in McKenzie Bridge for its annual retreat. After a year of ZOOM meetings, these retreats give the board much-needed face time to scheme and dream for the future. As you may remember, we just brought on eight fantastic new board members. This retreat was a great opportunity for everyone to meet, reflect on past highlights and discuss what we could do better.
