While some choose to ride fast and test their endurance, by definition, a Gran Fondo is not a race, but rather a mass start event designed to draw the community together and give everyone a chance to enjoy the fun of riding a bike on the same course as the pros. It is truly a ride for everyone! At The Oregon Gran Fondo, teams and individuals, who want to ride, will do that on the 117-mile Gran route or ride the 71 mile Medio Route. New is the 42 Mile Picollo and for that adventure cyclist the 137 Mile Sherman Route!
