What is Reach the Beach Oregon?
Reach the Beach is known for being the best supported ride in the Northwest.
Reach the Beach Oregon is a premier cycling event that takes participants on a scenic ride from Portland to the beautiful Oregon coast. Celebrating its 35th year, this annual event organized by the American Lung Association draws cyclists of all levels who are passionate about lung health and enjoy the challenge of a long-distance ride. With multiple starting points along the route, cyclists can choose a distance that suits their abilities, making it an inclusive event for both seasoned riders and those new to the sport.
The event is more than just a bike ride; it's a commitment to healthier lungs for all by supporting the American Lung Association's mission: to save lives by improving lung health and preventing lung disease. Each participant rides with a purpose, raising funds and awareness for critical research, education, and advocacy efforts. The ride culminates with a finish-line celebration at the coast, where cyclists and their supporters come together to celebrate their achievements and the impact they've made in the fight against lung disease. This 35th anniversary edition marks a significant milestone, honoring decades of community support and dedication to healthier lungs and cleaner air.
