This route covers part of the Portland Bicycle Club Pioneer Century course. Start from Molalla United Methodist Church, off Mathias Rd. Ride through town to South Molalla Ave. Go right and continue to the Wilhoit/Sawtell split. Veer right to stay on Wilhoit Rd. After about 1.5 miles turn left on Herman Rd and take this to Sawtell Rd. Turn right and endure a 2.1 mile climb to Leabo Rd. Go right on Leabo and enjoy nearly 2 miles of mostly downhill. The final 1/4 mile is quite steep with sharp curves. This comes out at Wilhoit Rd again. Make a quick right then a left onto Soda Springs Rd where there is a 0.5 mile steep climb. At Thomas Rd, turn right and continue to highway 213. Cross 213 to get on Dryland Rd. Take Dryland for about 2/3 mile then go left on Gibson Rd. This is a 2.5 mile stretch to Needy Rd. Go right on Needy and ride to Schneider Rd. Turn left and go about a mile then make a right onto Barlow Rd. This is a 6.6 mile stretch and is somewhat busy with minimal shoulder. Will likely alter this portion to avoid Barlow Rd. Make a right onto Lone Elder Rd and ride 2 miles to Canby-Marquam highway. Go right for 1/4 mile then left onto Kraxberger Rd. Take this to Harms Rd, which comes out on Macksburg Rd. This is a 7.7 mile stretch that crosses 213 and comes out at highway 211. Finish by going 1.6 miles to Molalla and back to the church. The climbing on this ride is front-loaded. Very little climbing after the short, steep climb on Soda Springs Rd.
