| If you are a wine lover and enjoy bicycling with friends then you won’t want to miss this one. I have created a very unusual tour that combines a Willamette Valley Wine Tour along with a visit to Mt Angel’s Oktoberfest. Given what it took for me to secure a camp site right it town in both Carlton and Mt Angel, I am quite certain that this tour also very unique. There’s nothing else quite like it.
Starting on Thursday, September 16th we will spend 2 days riding though the wine country of the Willamette Valley. Our casual rides will give us plenty of time to soak up the beauty of wine country and visit a few vineyards along the way. Camping in “downtown” Carlton, we will be able to walk to more than a dozen tasting rooms and go to one of Carlton’s best restaurants for a nice group dinner. We will follow-up our wine tour with 2 nights camping in Mt Angel to allow us to enjoy one of the most authentic Oktoberfest celebrations in the United States. You better start practicing the Chicken Dance! While in Mt Angel you will have the option of a challenging day ride to Silver Creek Falls or a leisurely day spent at The Oregon Garden in Silverton. We will finish up our long weekend tour with an easy ride north to Champoeg State Park to “clear your head” before we head back home Sunday afternoon.
