Bend has been blowing up with its reputation for sweet trails, and now has a Super D event on the schedule. Only three hours from Portland, the course is 8 miles long, with 1500 feet of descending, and only 300 feet of climbing. It sounds pretty damn sweet to me, and it is the perfect excuse to check out Bend’s riding scene.
