September 30th-October 4th: BMWOR Historic Inns & Hotel Tour
Since the ODR provides dualsport riders with a chance to enjoy the dirty side of Oregon, we want to provide the asphalt-oriented rider with an opportunity to check out Oregon too. Last year was the Oregon 4 Corners Ride and was perfect, but this year the riding is a little more random in nature and will not necessarily cover so many miles. With that said, the asphalt-oriented ride will focus on riding to and staying at Historic Inns & Hotels. Routes and hotel arrangements are being mapped out, so if you're interested in participating in this event, please call BMWOR, Eugene at 541.338.0269. Ride fee is $25 per person and includes suggested route(s), organized lodging (meals paid for separately), organized evening meal (meals paid for separately), and a t-shirt. Additional details to follow shortly.
October 4th: 1st Thursday Coffee
BMWRO meets at BMWOR, Tigard @ 10:00am.
PLEASE NOTE: For legal reasons, rides are not officially organized by BMWOR, Eugene & Tigard; therefore, riding to and from a meeting destination is clearly at the will and discretion of each individual and participants are solely responsible for themselves.
