This organized ride began at the Adel, OR store. The first 18 miles was north on Hogback Rd. The first few miles were along the west side of Crump Lake. The remainder of this section to the Plush, OR rest stop was generally flat, Nice tailwind on this part. The second segment was a 29.2 mile out-and-back on Hart Mtn. Rd (14.6 miles to the end of the pavement). This highlight of this section was riding within the Hart Mtn. NWR. The first 6 miles followed the west and north sides of Hart Lake and then along the base of the Hart Mtns. Returned to the Plush rest stop (mile 46.6). The next 18.4 miles was a grueling slog on the Plush-Adel cutoff Road. Endured a lengthy climb immediately out of Plush. After the initial long climb, the next 11 miles consisted of several long rollers. Wind made this section that much harder. Elevation gain in the first 46 miles was 1680 ft. The above 18.4 mile segment included nearly 1500 ft. Dropped down the final stop at the Highway 140 junction (mile 65). The last 12.5 miles was east on 140. There were a couple short climbs, but a lot of downhill and tailwind. All in all, a great first experience on this ride.
