Cascade Gran Fondo

Cascade Gran Fondo - August 3-5, 2012 in Bend, Oregon.

Welcome to the home of the second annual Cascade Gran Fondo!  You're invited to join Team RadioShack Nissan Trek's Chris Horner for three fantastic days in scenic Bend, Oregon.

Located in the heart of Central Oregon, Bend is a town known for activity and adventure.  The Cascade Gran Fondo will showcase many of the great things Bend has to offer, including an evening of entertainment in the historic downtown Tower Theatre, a fantastic dinner on Bend’s Westside, and a scenic ride through the Cascade mountains and Deschutes National Forest.  The rest of the time can be spent exploring the outdoor activities, shopping, great food, and fantastic atmosphere that the area has to offer.

The Cascade Gran Fondo will be a fun ride through Central Oregon.  The ride was designed by Chris to suit every type of rider, from competitive cyclists looking to challenge themselves to casual cyclists looking for a fun ride in central Oregon and everyone in between!  Come along for a fun ride alongside Chris Horner, all while raising money for three great causes.  Riders of all ages and abilities are welcome!
