From an after-work ride through Portland's neighborhood streets or a family cycle along the flat Willamette Valley Scenic Bikeway, to a multi-day tour in the salty breezes of the Oregon coast -- if you're seeking the best bike trails in Oregon, you'll find plenty of blacktop bliss in 75 Classic Rides: Oregon.

75 Classic Rides is a Mountaineers Books series authored by passionate local cyclists who've put thousands of miles on their bikes to bring you the very best bike riding trails across their given state. The focus is on one-day routes (a mix of loops and one-way courses), but you'll also find suggestions for link-ups and some inspiring, longer routes for touring, including at least one cross-state route. Terrain varies from flat paved trails to epic mountain challenges. The bonus is all rides found within 75 Classic Rides also come with FREE downloadable ride cue sheets for each trip. Downloadable ride cue sheets are free with purchase of your book.

Each route description starts with the basic essentials to get you going: a brief overview, full-color map, elevation profile, difficulty level, round-trip distance, road conditions, and advice on the best season to ride. Full narrative descriptions tell what sights to expect, best towns for food or a cup of coffee, safety info on road shoulders and bike lanes, as well as turn-by-turn descriptions and mileage logs.

2025 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Vans: More Tech and More eSprinter Configurations
  Mercedes-Benz is upgrading the tech on its Sprinter vans for 2025 with more features that should make driving the big vans easier. They should be especially helpful if youve converted your van for a high-adventure and outdoors lifestyle.   The electric eSprinter is also now available with more body configurations, and while that might sound van-life-ready, its only with a new...

Discover the Best of Asheville with Advice from Local Experts
  Over the past two decades, Asheville’s reputation as one of the country’s premier adventure hubs has been built on its unique combination of terrain and culture. There just aren’t many communities like this—surrounded by nature but also serving up a deeply rooted arts and food culture. That means it’s as easy to access hiking, biking, fly-fishing, and paddling as it...
Sisay Lemma and Hellen Obiri Just Won the Boston Marathon
  Sisay Lemma of Ethiopia almost did the unthinkable at the Boston Marathon on Monday morning, while American Emma Bates sure tried to.   The 33-year-old Sisay not only ran away from a very strong field to win, but he briefly teased spectators and fans with an unfathomably fast pace. Lemma, who entered the race as the fourth-fastest marathoner in history (2:01:48),...
The Best Tents for Camping in Comfort and Style
  Stooping in a lightweight, minimalist, backpacking tent while camping out of your car isn’t much fun. Neither is getting blown over in a flimsy, big-box-store mega shelter. With that in mind, we tested seven new larger camping tents this past year in a quest to find the most luxurious, well-designed, and storm-worthy camping tents for lounging in style, no matter...
Pit Vipers Exciters: Thru-Hiker Tested, Hurricane Approved
  Cycling, rock climbing, labwork, construction, running, and thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail: My Pit Vipers Exciters have done it all. After ditching everyday glasses for contacts, I discovered the Exciters more than 6 years ago. I needed sunglasses to keep me safe from UV (and potentially flying objects).   After several years of testing different shades, Im convinced the Pit Viper Exciters...
To Repel Ticks, Hikers Should Smell Like Ants
  Are you going for a hike? Don’t forget your bottle of ant musk.   A new scientific study suggests that some species of ticks—those Lyme Disease-spreading creepy crawlies—are scared off by pheromones produced by ants. Now, a team of researchers is working to synthetically replicate these ant excretions and sell them as tick repellent. Because unlike DEET or Citronella or other...
Last-Minute Filson Deals: Spring Sale Ends Soon
  The apparel and gear from Filson are high-quality and long-lasting. Thats why the prices are so high, and the sales are so rare. This brand made its mark by designing some of the most rugged workwear and outdoor apparel. Just check out our review of its Tin Chaps —which have lasted our tester 40 years and counting.   This week, Filson...
The Best Sleeping Bags for Camping in Comfort
  As far as we’re concerned, camping near your car is all about comfort—save the rehydrated meals and paper-thin foam sleeping bags for the backcountry. And if there’s any part of your kit you shouldn’t cut corners with, it’s your bedding. The scenery always looks that much nicer after a good night of sleep.   The good news about shopping for sleeping...
The Sandal of My Globetrotting Childhood: Chaco Z/1 Sandal Review
  Long before I thought of myself as an outdoorsy person (or had any understanding of what that meant), I was traipsing through Aztec ruins in Mexico, swimming across jungle rivers in India, and hiking through Nepalese mountains in my trusty Chacos. In fact, I only recently learned that the companys iconic model was called the Z Sandal.   To me, theyve...
How Everest Was Turned into an Industry
  When Will Cockrell told me he was writing a book about Mount Everest, he couldn’t see the roll of my eyes. But he’s perceptive enough to have picked up on my lukewarm commitment to being interviewed, and so I felt a need to explain that there are already quite a few Everest books out there. My coffee table is in...
