Ride Classification	Ride leader
Moderate/2-3 hrs./Gravel	Brad Boyd

With the mild Winter we are having Thursday Gravel rides have started this season!

We’ll be starting @ 10 AM to let the temperature warm up a bit. Rides will start easy and last 1.5 to 2 hours to start getting longer and more challenging as the season progresses. As the weather warms up we’ll move the time to our more normal morning slot.

Brad Boyd is owner of Eurosports in Sisters, OR. Brad has been leading road, MTB and gravel rides for over 30 years. He welcomes all COW members every Thursday at his shop for a moderately paced (10 mph avg.) gravel ride in and around the Sisters area.

Eurosport is also home to a couple of food carts and multiple craft beers. It is is a welcoming and relaxing place to hang while visiting Sisters.

Departure time is dependent on the weather. Please visit the Eurosport Ride page for the latest start time information. Be sure to arrive early as Brad will determine the route based on the type of riders that show up.

Feel free to email Brad if you have questions.
