2026 RAMROD is canceled.

2026 RAMROD is canceled.

Despite Redmond Cycling Club’s best efforts, we are unable to reach an agreement with Mount Rainier National Park that would permit any future RAMROD course. The only options—a route outside the Park, which we feel does not capture the essence of RAMROD, or a post–Labor Day date, which is too late in the season—are not viable.

With deep regret, we must announce that RAMROD will not take place in 2026. We view this as a pause rather than a conclusion and remain committed to pursuing future opportunities, including the possibility of returning in 2027.

November 6, 2024 Update

RAMROD 2024 went well despite the late change in course and the date moved from July to September. We had positive feedback from Park officials concerning the ride and the Park officials thought the revised, reverse course was not disruptive to Park operations. Most of our riders were happy with the new course. We got some good feedback and will be working on some ways the ride can be improved.
