Run From The Sun 25
Sept. 28 – Oct. 1, Rocky Bend Campground
​
It all started for Top Dead Center 25 years ago in Pacific City. To celebrate the quadranscentennial anniversary of TDC and Run From The Sun, we're returning to the northern Oregon coast for big weekend of riding and a party or two. We're starting a day early for an extra ride, but as always, feel free to arrive Friday or Saturday, though we cannot guarantee tent spots.
​
We've reserved the Rocky Bend Campground on the Little Nestucca River, 27 miles east of Pacific City, 31.7 miles west of Carlton and 17 miles NW of Willamina. This campsite worked out well last year. Quite scenic with hiking trails and Niagara Falls near by (no, not that Niagara Falls). The closest market and gas station is Beaver, 14 miles west. There are Airbnb rentals in the area to reserve on your own. There are other campgrounds in the area offering individual sites to reserve on your own.
​
Limited Parking
This is a scooter camping rally. Attendees are expected to attend on their scooter. We have limited parking with no alternative in the immediate area. Plenty of scooter parking. Four wheel vehicle parking is very limited to support vehicles only. If traveling from out of state, contact us for parking suggestions.
