What else can you tell me a about the TDA courses?

Experience the ride of a lifetime at the TedDriven Tour De AlpenFlüsse — an epic road bike adventure that winds through the breathtaking alpine rivers and lush valleys of Plain and Lake Wenatchee, Washington. Part of the new Leavenworth BikeFest on June 14th, 2025, this tour, powered by TedDriven (TedDriven.com), offers two spectacular courses designed to thrill riders of all levels.

The 62-Mile Metric Century Challenge: For those seeking the most challenging route, the 62-mile (100 Kilometer) metric century starts right at hosting sponsor "Plain Cellars" in downtown Plain, follows the Chiwawa Loop Road with a fun diversion to tour Shugart Flats, then continues to meet the Lake Wenatchee Highway where you can hit the rest stop, then continue all the way to the end of the lake and beyond up the White River Valley before turning around at Tall Timber Ranch. Then its back to find the right turn that will take you along North Shore Road of Lake Wenatchee, back for another pass by the rest stop, then its on to an out and back tour of the south shore of Lake Wenatchee (that's right - you can see it from both sides now...). After that bit of cool, you will head south on the Beaver Valley Highway and just before you get back to Plain, its a right turn on to River Road, one of the most fun parts of the tour. Hit the turn around and then its to the finish right back where you started in Plain. Beauty eh? It’s a perfect balance of challenge and scenic beauty, ideal for riders wanting to push their limits or just enjoy the ride!

The 45-Mile Medio Tour: Looking for a little less mileage, but still want all the adventure and scenery? The 45-mile route features the identical path of the 62, but skips the trip up the White River Valley and hits the turn to the Lake Wenatchee North Shore Road by taking a left at Brown Road. This slightly shorter route will leave riders with the same taste of the TedDriven Tour De AlpenFlusse’s stunning landscapes, light traffic and nice roads.
