L. L. “Stub” Stewart Memorial State Park is a 1,654-acre Oregon state park located 34 miles west of Portland. It’s a quick trip by car and the park offers just under 8 miles of mountain bike trails for all skill levels along with sites for picnicking, camping, cabin rentals, and access to the paved Banks-Vernonia trail. Purpose-built cross-country trails can be linked together for a nearly endless flow of riding and there’s two ferried trails designed to test riders with berms, jumps, drops, trail gaps, and a wallride. Bring a picnic and enjoy great views from the Hilltop Day Use Area in between or after runs.
Day use parking is $5
Our Rubber to the Road film series is a collection of favorite bicycle rides in and around the Portland, Oregon metro region. Rubber to the Road began as a series of printed Portland ride guidebooks. Volume I was compiled and written by Peter Marsh in 1997, and Volume II by Otis Rubottom in 2003. Both were produced by Dave Guettler, founder and owner of River City Bicycles, with proceeds donated to the Bicycle Transportation Alliance, now The Street Trust, and the Community Cycling Center. In 2010 we compiled both volumes into rubbertotheroad.com. For the summer of 2017 we are adding short films for many of our favorites to give some insight into the sights and sounds of these routes along with tips on bikes, equipment, and getting there.
