Day 0 – September 11

You may have noticed that the dates for Cycle Oregon are Sept. 11-18, but the Day 1 route is for Sept. 12. That’s because of the often-overlooked Day 0. This is Saturday, the day that riders converge on the first overnight site in Elgin. It’s the day to pick up your packets, re-acquaint with riders and Cycle O folks, get your tent routine down and maybe even go for a spin to loosen your legs. Dinner is served in the big tent, and there will be live entertainment on the stage along with ride announcements.
