Event Highlights
The Oregon/SW Washington Tour de Cure offers cyclists an opportunity to enjoy the rolling hills of the Willamette Valley, winding your way through local vineyards, farms and hazelnut orchards. This year we will offer routes ranging from a 5 mile loop for all ages to our Century Ride, all leaving from Hillsboro Stadium. Breakfast will be provided before you begin your ride.
All routes are fully supported with well-stocked rest stops every 10-12 miles, providing water, sports drink, fruit and snacks. SAG vehicles, bike mechanics, medical support and radio communications are on the route to ensure you will have a safe and enjoyable ride. Once you cross the finish line, plan on staying and enjoying the festivities that include lunch, live music by "Soul Blues Male Artist of the Year" Curtis Salgado, kid's activities, water slide and vendor booths.
