Chinook Century Rides 2024
May 11th - Inland Empire Century
June 8th - Deadman’s Pass
July 10th- Tripple By-Pass
Chinook Cycling Club will be organizing 3 progressive century rides this summer. Each
ride will be harder than the previous one and will culminate with the Tripple By-Pass
(White Pass-Cayuse Pass-Chinook Pass).
Now is the time to mark your calendars and start getting in some base miles so you can be ready on
May 11th for the Inland Empire Century (IEC). It would be great to see a large group in Chinook kits
complete this ride in record time. inlandempirecentury.enmotive.com/events/2024-inland-empire-century
The second ride will be Deadman’s pass on June 8th which begins at Holdman, Oregon,
riding through Pendleton and traveling up the old cabbage hill hi-way(Deadman’s pass)
to the turn around at Meacham. www.strava.com/routes/3198679736644943822
The finale will be the Tripple By-Pass which begins outside of Naches at the Hwy 12
and 410 jct. We will ride clockwise and avoid the narrowest part of Hwy 12 by taking the
side road around Rimrock and Clear Lakes. This ride will be supported by the Chinook
van (thank you Carol Simmons) so we will have access to snacks and water at several
stops. www.strava.com/routes/3187569945229841106
It is hard to estimate average pace as weather conditions will play a large role.
However, there is usually a fast group, 18-20 mph at the IEC. If we have a
dozen or more riders there may be a second group form as needed. We
typically re-group on top of Webber Canyon and Prosser food stops. More info
on each of these rides will be shared as they draw closer.
