We know that camping isn’t everyone’s style, but we think you’ll fall in love with the idea of sleeping under the stars here at Justesen Ranch. Bring your own tent, or upgrade to our immensely popular Tent + Porter. You’ll arrive on Friday to a pre-set-up tent and luggage service to your “front door”, including 2 chairs out front. All you need to bring is your sleeping bag, sleeping pad and pillow! While there isn’t any lodging onsite, Maupin is a quick 15 minute drive away with plenty of cute accommodations.

Our dream camp is perfectly perched along the White river in pristine canyon at the Justesen Ranch. Our overnight guests will have designated areas for tent camping & RV camping. We only have 30 spots for RVs, so please be sure to add it onto your registration ahead of time so we save a spot for you!

Tent Camping

Flat tent camping is available for Friday and Saturday nights only and is included with registration. Much of the area is shady. Don’t forget to bring your tent, ground cloth, sleeping bag, and pad.

Please do not pitch your tent prior to 3 p.m. on Friday.

Tent & Porter: $100 for tent and porter for the weekend includes a 2-person tent and chairs, plus your baggage is brought right to your tent. Limited to 100 so sign up fast before this sells out! Purchase here.

RV/Van Camping

30 available RV & Van Camping spots. All spots are dry – no water, no dumping. Convenient portable toilets and showers will be on site. For Friday and Saturday night only. Price: $100 per RV/Van for the weekend. Click here to get a pass.

Vehicle Parking

Plenty of onsite parking will be available but please keep in mind that it is about half a mile from camp. Carpooling is recommended.
Price: $30 per vehicle for weekend – Purchase parking pass here.

Directions to the camp will be included in the Ride Guide which will be emailed to you and published on the website one month before the event start date. Service is pretty limited in this area. We recommend having everything downloaded before you arrive at camp.

No bus service will be provided by CO, but we encourage folks to rideshare through Get There. Check out Getting there and Getting back! We highly recommend coordinating carpools with other folks!

The idea is to have a relaxing, enjoyable weekend of riding. The key to that? Take care of as many details as possible before the ride. In this section you’ll find pretty much everything you need to know to make your Cycle Oregon experience a great one.

Showers

Hot showers are included in registration and will be provided at the overnight site. Please remember to bring a towel or two, as we do not provide towels or toiletries.

• Friday  5:00 p.m – 10:00 p.m.
• Saturday  6:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m. // 3:00 p.m. – 10:00 p.m.

Bike Repair

The Trek Bicycle PDX team of bicycle technicians provides mechanical support at the overnight site. Technical support is available for emergency repairs of well-maintained equipment. It is your responsibility to make sure your bicycle is in good condition. Labor is available at a discount.

Rider Services

Look for the Rider Services trailer in camp. Here you can ask questions, meet friends, or locate missing items at lost and found.

Cycle Oregon Gift Shop

The Cycle Oregon Gift Shop is where you can shop for some great Cycle Oregon merchandise. We’ll have a limited number of this year’s ride jersey and a selection of Cycle Oregon merchandise.

Massage

The majestic mountains of Oregon seem mighty tall when you’re pedaling up them but knowing that a massage awaits you, can make that climb a lot easier.

On Saturday only, after a long day in the saddle, bring your tired legs down to the massage tent from 12 p.m. to 10 p.m. Our therapists use a variety of Swedish, deep-tissue and sports massage styles to keep you riding strong all weekend. Massage relieves muscle pain and tightness by stimulating circulation, helping you recover after extreme exertion and stopping spasms before they stop you from riding. Massages can be tailored to your pressure preferences and to the areas where you need it most.

Pre-booking is available! To pre-book an appointment, please visit the Cycle Oregon Massage Team’s Web site. Under the ‘About’ tab, you’ll find contact information for the massage therapists available for our Joyride Event. Please contact them directly to sign-up for a spot.

Massage rates are $110.00 for a 50-minute appointment and $165.00 for an 80-minute appointment. We accept all major cards or cash. A limited number of 30-minute appointments may be available the day of the ride. Come to the massage tent directly to inquire.

Yoga

On Saturday only, stretch out the muscles that get tight during cycling. Yoga will help you stay close to your breath this weekend. Not only will this help you feel better, but stretching can also help prevent injury. Mats are provided.

Medical Services

Medical services will be provided by Adventure Medics and will be available on the course, and at the overnight site. There is no charge for medical services on the course or at the site. If you require transport to or from a local medical facility, you will be financially responsible for transport and medical services there.

Cycle Oregon prides itself on providing a fully supported ride and plenty of route options for everyone’s style. Our goal is to help you finish each day’s ride. To that end, our course is complete with the following services and amenities.

Course Hours: 7 a.m.– 4 p.m. (Sunday 3:30 p.m.)

Course support services are available only during the course hours. If you start before the course opens or are still riding after the course closes, there will be no support services available. All Cycle Oregon riders must be on the course by 9 a.m. Those still on the course after 4 p.m. (3:30 p.m. on Sunday) will be offered a ride to camp. If you choose not to take the ride you will be on your own to get back to camp.

Food and Drink on the Course

• Lunch

  • Lunch will be served on the course.

• Rest Stops

  • There will be 1-4 rest & water stops available along the route each day to provide water, drinks, lunch, and delicious snacks. A final site map will detail these locations and services.
  • Rest Stop signs alert riders when one is ahead. You can also see the location of each Rest Stop on the maps that will be inside the rider packet you receive when you check-in. Rest Stops are open from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m.

SAG Vehicles

There will be multiple SAG vehicles on the course each day. They are available to transport cyclists in cases of mechanical problems or medical injuries. They also have extra water, snacks, and sunscreen if needed. If at any time you need assistance, please signal a SAG with a “thumbs down” signal. If you do get into a SAG, you may not be transported directly to camp. The SAG vehicles usually wait until they are full to go to camp.

Bike Mechanics

Trek Bicycle PDX will have mechanics in camp and on course. They will make basic repairs in order to get you through the weekend. Cyclists will incur any charges associated with parts or extensive repairs.

Medical Services

Medical services by Adventure Medics will be available on the course, and at the overnight site. There is no charge for medical services on the course or at the site. If you require transport to or from a local medical facility, you will be financially responsible for transport and medical services there.

Motorcycle Safety Patrol

Motorcycle safety patrol volunteers drive the Cycle Oregon course each day. They are a great source of information and assistance and enhance the overall safety of the ride by interacting with riders who may pose a hazard by unlawful or unsafe riding.

Gravel-specific and touring bikes with 35-40c (or greater) tires and low gearing will thrive on our routes. As always, the best bike and gear to bring will be the one you are familiar with and comfortable riding. We do recommend that you or your bicycle have the capacity to carry two water bottles for proper hydration and to take full advantage of our renowned rest.

We’re excited about the experience e-bikes offer riders and welcome e-bikes at Joyride. However, charging is not available. We recommend coming with 2 fully charged batteries if you plan to ride an e-bike and use one for each day (Saturday & Sunday).

COVID-19

Rider health and safety is paramount on Cycle Oregon events. Working within the guidelines from the Oregon Health Authority, we have developed COVID-19 safety plans and protocols which we will amend as new updates and guidelines are announced leading up to an event. 

As of March 11, 2022 masks are no longer required for indoor settings or group activities in Oregon. There are exceptions, masks are required in healthcare settings, and we ask that you are mindful of additional requests you may encounter during Joyride.

Masks are not required at Joyride but we support those who choose to wear them for any reason they may have. We recognize members of the Cycle Oregon community and those associated with support of this event hold varying views on face covering. Out of respect for one another and in the spirit of the Cycle Oregon mission we ask that you honor our mask-friendly policy at Joyride – Do what’s best for you.

Teasing, mocking, harassment or intimidation from any position towards others will not be tolerated.

Please check back for updates to our Merchandise Refunds policy.
