Mountain Bike Oregon
January 17th, 2006 by OgreSo I’m sitting on the fence right now, I think this event: Mountain Bike Oregon would be pretty cool. $250 for 5 days of fun riding is a bargain. Here’s the rundown of the event from their site:
- 500 miles of the world’s best singletrack trails
- Hundreds of cyclists
- Three squares meals each day
- New Belgium beer INCLUDED
- Free Rivery City Bicycles mechanical support
- Free demo bikes
- Optional two days of additional hardcore riding
What to do, what to do…

Hmmmm… Looks pretty cool, but for $250 you could also do some epic road trip/riding trips with buddies. Its interesting as an event though. Its sort of a “destination vacation” for riders…. I’m tempted too.

Certainly just do a road trip for less but probably not much less. The $50/ day includes meals and lodging, even if you’re talking about camping you are still looking at $10-15/ night most places add another $10-20/ day for food (and I’ve heard the food is good) and I know a lot of guys who can easily drink $10/ day worth of beer. Overall just the fact that everything is provided and I can focus strictly on riding is a bonus to me (the logistics is taken care of).
Assuming I can get some people to go with me (and it sounds like at least a couple people will) I’m probably going to do this. We might just do the 3 day option and ride some other trails up north.
