This is the 10th annual Giant Loop Ride, an adventure motorcycle rally weekend in the high desert of Eastern Oregon, based out of beautiful Crystal Crane Hot Springs.

Explore incredible areas of the state like Steens Mountain, the Owyhee River, the Ochoco Mountains and the Alvord Desert while meeting new riding friends. All street legal bike types and riders of all skills levels are welcome – sport, dual sport, scramblers, adventure touring – and you can ride your own route or choose from a variety of routes and form your own groups to suit most any bike and rider skill level. Epic road riding awaits any who enjoy backcounty pavement as well.

This year’s event will also be part of the Harley-Davidson Pan America Adventure Motorcycle Demo Tour, giving skeptics and fans a like a chance to test out the highly-anticipated American Adventure Tourer.

“In 2019, I first saw the new Harley-Davidson Pan America when it was previewed behind glass at the world’s largest motorcycle shows in Milan, Italy,” says Harold Olaf Cecil, Giant Loop owner/founder. “I cannot think of another new adventure motorcycle introduction in the past decade that’s generated this much buzz and interest. We are truly honored that Harley-Davidson selected our annual ride to be part of this historic roll out.”
