Accommodations
Camping
Every overnight site has an area designated for camping – the “Tent City,” as it’s affectionately known. Tent sites are available on a first-come, first served basis. Some things to consider as you choose a place for your tent include proximity to restrooms, the entertainment stage, the massage tent (they’re open fairly late each evening and have music playing), etc. Many groups of riders like to stay close together, so that can take some logistical coordination.
Tent & Porter Service
If you want the star treatment for your camping experience, try the immensely popular Tent & Porter service.
Imagine this: You arrive in camp and skip the trip to the baggage truck. Instead you head directly for a primo camping spot, where a spiffy 9′ x 7′ Cycle Oregon tent has been set up for you. Your luggage is already inside. And this process repeats itself every day. Tents fit one or two people, and the service costs $350 for the week. You’ll have the same tent all week, set up by 2 p.m. each day, marked with your tent number.
Tents are limited and available on a first-come, first-portered basis, so register early to ensure your spot. (We’re not kidding; this service typically sells out within a few days.) If two of you are sharing, only one should sign up for the service. One or two chairs will be provided with each tent. Sleeping bags and pads are not provided, so please don’t forget to bring yours.
Lodging List
Some Cycle Oregon riders prefer to seek lodging in the towns we stay in. While we don’t arrange or guarantee local lodging, here are some options in our 2010 host towns. If you choose to stay in lodging, you are responsible for getting you, your bike and your bag to and from camp each day on the same schedule as for other riders.
