The Mudslinger Adventure Squad | Willamette Valley, Bend Oregon

2025/2026

The goal is not necessarily to be super fast or the most pro, but rather to seek adventure, the path less traveled, and celebrate two wheels with friends.

We love riding and racing bikes and want you to be a part of our group!

We seek adventure and the road less traveled!

Over the 30 years of personal cycling involvement, the participation of women is 15-20 percent at the highest point of the overall cycling population and considering Oregon's demographics people of color are few, but growing population of outdoor enthusiasts.

Group Rides are available to members only*

* Please bring a friend to an adventure Squad ride! One non-member ride is allowed per the insurance requirements. After that ride we hope you will join!
