Ride With Us: Little Brother

Note: Originally we were going to ride Major Enoch, but decided to tame it down ad ride Little Brother.

Join us for a jaunt on a beautiful gravel loop out near Brothers, Oregon that serves up a little bit of everything: wide-open ranch country, sagebrush, colorful rock formations, quiet roads, and big-sky views along the southern edge of the Maury Mountains.

Expect rolling farmlands, desert sage, ranches with cows and horses, roadside ponds, colorful rhyolite and basalt cliffs, and a stop-worthy historic cemetery along the way. There’s a real climb in the middle, but the route rewards you with plenty of smooth, fast riding and a mostly downhill feel later on.

There is also a reported farm stand / honor-system mini fridge out there with homemade goodies like cookies, focaccia, and sourdough. If it’s open, snacks may happen. No promises, but it sounds like a pretty great bonus if we get lucky. Maybe wear a jersey with good pockets just in case.
