Starting at the Discovery Center in The Dalles, OR the Stage 4 Scenic Gorge Time Trial is the toughest TT you will ever see. In keeping with the spirit of the Mt. Hood Cycling Classic’s challenge, this TT course will carry riders on some of the most spectacular roads they will ever have the opportunity to see. Riders will start the course with a flat 5 miles to get their legs good and warm before meeting up with their first major obstacle, the category 3 climb up the Rowena Loops. Built nearly 100 years ago as the first highway to pass through the Columbia River Gorge this 2 mile section of road winds its way up to the top of the Columbia River Plateau. Once on top, it is a gradual decent down into the town of Mosier and then back up another category 4 climb to the Historic Mosier Tunnels. From there riders will wind through the Columbia River Highway State Park’s to rolling terrain for the last 5 miles. With 18 miles and nearly 2000 feet of elevation this is one tough time trial to compliment one tough stage race. Come prepared, if the famous Gorge winds are out in force expect one heck of a head wind.
