About the Event

The Siskiyou Scenic Bicycle Tour and Greenhorn Gravel Grinder return to Yreka on May 15, 2027, offering riders an array of distances across both days. On Saturday, cyclists can choose from paved routes ranging from a leisurely 40 miles to the challenging 102-mile option, catering to all levels of experience and endurance. For those who prefer gravel terrain or wish for more adventure on Sunday, May 16th, two options are available: the Fool's Gold route at 39 miles with three hill climbs, and the Mother Lode course covering a grueling 63 miles through varied landscapes.
Participants can also opt for shorter paved routes of 21 or 58 miles on Saturday, while Sunday features an additional option of a scenic 29 to 39-mile ride.
