As longtime lovers of cycling through Oregon wine country, Eola Hills Wine Cellars started Bike Oregon Wine Country (BOWC) in 1997. These fully supported and guided tours take cyclists along scenic backcountry roads, stopping for wine tasting along the way and concluding with a celebratory salmon barbecue feast, live music and wine tasting at our heritage estate winery in Rickreall. This year, we are excited to welcome back Rich Washburn of Pinot Vista Vineyards as our planning partner and fellow BOWC organizer.
IMPORTANT EVENT INFORMATION:
*All BOWC Rides Start & End At Eola Hills Wine Cellars (Address: 501 S. Pacific Hwy 99W, Rickreall, OR 97371)*
