Oregon’s ONLY all-women’s bike ride; a benefit for HAVEN of the Gorge. This unique and inspiring event gives women and girls a fun, gorgeous ride along the Columbia River Gorge. 

The 20- mile “Girl Friends Ride” starts at The Dalles River Front Marina Park and heads out along the scenic Columbia River. >>

A more challenging beautiful scenic route takes the rider up the Rowena Loops as “The Sisters of The Road” 40-mile ride, then continues to the little town of Mosier. Here you can stop at the ice-cream store or just bike through town to the Mosier Tunnels and the Memaloose Overlook on the Old Columbia River Highway and into Hood River. >>

For the more adventurous: “A Chick Trip” the 60-mile ride, continues up Hwy. 35 with a turn-around at Rasmussen’s Farms and the beautiful trip back to River Front Park in The Dalles.

This all-women’s cycling event is a fully-supported ride created by those passionate about cycling, friendship, fitness, and the desire to “brake the cycle” of violence, making a difference in people’s lives!! Gorge-Us Gals’ sponsors love their riders and will pamper them with well-stocked rest stops, bike mechanic support, surprises along the way, sassy tees, girly gift bags, and fun finish-line festivities; with chocolate, girlie products, food and music!!
