This is a 16 mile point to point few ride.  We’ll be riding the Ollalie, O’leary, Kings Castle Epic and the potential for a secret bonus loop.  We start our day with a shuttle to Horsepasture Mountain Trail Head where we hop on beautiful ridgeline singletrack for a good part of our day, with fun little descents and popper climbs to keep you happy.  We eventually make our way to McDuff Mountain where we find ourselves eating lunch at the high point overlooking a huge 2,500 foot decent in front of us.  We saddle up and make our way down this massive descent to castle rock trail that provides a nice traverse over to our final descent of the day down Kings Castle.  Kings Castle is a long and playful decent down to the bottom of the valley floor.  Before you leave the McKenzie River Valley, don’t forget to check out the Blue Pools, the Hot Springs and if you’re staying in the area, hit up our friends Gary and Alyssa at the Horse Creek Lodge.  They have a beautiful property with cozy cottages, room to park the van, tent camp, or find a nice hot outdoor shower.
