Bicycle & Pedestrian

A Great Way to See the Oregon Coast

Lincoln County is one of Oregon's seven coastal counties. It has many miles of coastal roadways, which are attractive to many cyclists. Lincoln County is a developing region in promoting bicycle use for transportation and recreation. A bike plan was adopted in 1992 to improve road shoulders for transportation and recreational purposes.

This site will provide information on bike routes, maps, and scenic routes to take in Lincoln County.

Drive Less Connect's bike partner matching feature helps bicyclists find others who may want to ride together. Biking in groups increases safety and is a great way to learn new biking routes.

Cycling Safety Tips

Bikeway routes include roads with passenger vehicle traffic, and often heavy-truck traffic, and are for cyclists comfortable riding in these conditions. All cyclists are required to abide by the “Rules of the Road”, defined in the Oregon Revised Statutes, Chapter 811 (ORS.811). To demonstrate the best cycling etiquette and promote good relations with motorists, please ride single file when possible and be aware of the flow of traffic. Also, please be aware that many rural roads are used by freight truck, agricultural equipment, or logging trucks, so it’s likely that you may encounter vehicles with oversized loads.
