Rider Guests

[Register a Guest]

Some riders like to share their Cycle Oregon experience with friends and family members who do not bicycle. Cycle Oregon welcomes Rider Guests, and we do our very best to accommodate their needs. Rider Guests drive to each overnight location. To enhance the safety of riders and their overall experience, Rider Guests will be asked to take alternate roads to the overnight site wherever possible. Rider Guests are not registered riders, and so should not be riding the route each day.

Rider Guest campsites will be as close to the rider venues as possible. Full hook-ups (water, electricity and dumping stations) are provided when available. Rider Guests with vehicles that have generators will be located separately from those without.  In addition, the Rider Guest area will observe quiet hours (no generators) from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. every day.

A registration fee of $350 is required for each Rider Guest vehicle. This fee must be received by August 15, 2008. Rider Guests can purchase a meal wristband in advance that includes seven breakfasts and seven dinners. The adult meal wristband is $200 for the week and $150 for children under 12. Week meal wristbands or individual meal tickets can be purchased during the ride from the Cycle Oregon Retail trailer. To register your friend or family member, please click here.

Registered Rider Guests will receive a packet in August that includes driving instructions, site maps with pre-assigned locations for each rider guest, a vehicle permit and a meal wristband or tickets (if purchased). Cycle Oregon has two volunteers who serve as Rider Guest liaisons. They will make sure you are well looked after and answer any questions you have during the week.

Note: If you're interested in renting a RV for the Week Ride, RV Northwest, the official motor home supplier for Cycle Oregon 2008, is offering participants a 15% discount on weekly rates. Click here to find out more.
