Bike Ride Description
The stop signs are mark either lights or stop signs. They are not true end points. At the Ranger Station you can fill up on water and use very clean rest rooms. There is a bike specific path to use there. The ride up and down Gates Pass is not for beginners and should not be ridden alone. 6% or higher grades up one side and 7% or better on the other. Rode this in the clockwise direction. Most of the rest of the ride was relatively flat except McCain Loop which has some rollers and some hills to keep up strength training. Recommend testing your brakes and low gears BEFORE starting this ride.
