Temps are rising — let’s get out of the valley and into the mountains.
We’re rolling out from Crouch for a 58-mile gravel ride with 5,500 feet of climbing, starting with a long steady grind up the Middle Fork of the Payette River. The route offers forest cover, remote roads, and a whole lot of elevation — the perfect antidote to mid-July heat.
It’s a self-supported ride, but I’ll be bringing a water filter for a river refill stop about halfway through.
A few of us are planning to camp in Crouch Friday night — more are welcome to join! If you’re interested, drop a comment and we can coordinate.
Post up if you’re coming or want to coordinate rides. It’s gonna be hot down low — but we’ll be grinding into cooler air.
