About

*Thank you all for a wonderful event in Moro! Follow us on social media or sign up for our newsletter to be the first to know about 2024 events.
What if you could spend the weekend crushing and cruising pristine gravel roads with amazing views on every horizon? What if all you had to do was ride your bike along newly discovered routes to the untouched, the unspoiled, the unreal? What if everything was taken care of so you could spend more time with friends and family, toasting the experience with free drinks, games, and live music?
Well, you can…on Cycle Oregon GRAVEL!
This year’s GRAVEL sets up camp at the Sherman County Fairgrounds in Moro. We’ll be riding some of the smoothest gravel you’ll ever find on a rollercoaster route of ups, downs and swoops each day. Get up close and personal with the Eastern Columbia Gorge riding in and over open valleys, vast landscapes, and hidden gorges with surprise views of the Deschutes River. Hammer the miles, roll slow and steady, or do a bit of both with endless expanses of big skies and an ever-present smile on your face. It’s your adventure to customize, maximize, and experience on roads less traveled.
