Not for the faint of heart – but definitely for the lover of dramatic climbs and coastal mountain scenery.

Expect some gravel and a big elevation gain in the first half of the ride, followed by a more flat trip through the heart of Oregon wine country in the second half of your 40 mile excursion.

Something that’s easy to overlook when people explore wine country is that, beyond the valley floors and rolling vineyard hillsides, Oregon’s wild and lush Coast Range is just a few miles away. If you’d like a bit of climbing challenge and love the low traffic of gravel roads, here’s a ride that takes you from the heart of a vibrant community, into the peaceful isolation of the forest, and back – all in 41 miles.

Start on 3rd Street in downtown McMinnville, which offers a bustling, eclectic mix of food, drink and shopping that can both fuel your ride and also serve as motivation to finish it.

After 3.5 miles getting out of town, a right turn puts you on @point[Peavine Road](d,5668.68), this route’s namesake. And once you’re on Peavine, feel the civilized world gradually fade away as you head up into the foothills of the Coast Range.

The climbing is more gradual after that, and you’ll @point[top out right about mile 14](d,22583.21). It’s through this section you’ll also notice fewer and fewer signs of settlement, as you pedal through forest stands of varying ages and enjoy some dramatic views. Once you turn onto @point[Gopher Valley Road](d,24005.6), you’ll cross a series of creek drainages on your way back down over 5 miles of low-effort descent.

Soon after, you’ll pass @poi[Coleman Vineyards](8572804), where you can stop to sample some pinot noir while enjoying valley views. And next up is the tiny crossroads burg of Bellevue – where the @poi[Bellevue Country Store](8572800) may surprise you with its comprehensive offerings, including bike repair supplies, gourmet coffee, picnic fixings and house-made caramels. Riding back toward McMinnville, you’ll also pass near @poi[Maysara Vineyards](8572802).

From here it’s a gentle cruise back to town, where you can enjoy the amenities of a bountiful community in the middle of wine country. But at least for a few hours, you’ve gone far off the beaten path – without traveling all that far.

## **Ride Tips:**

* **Tire Size:** Minimum of 33C
