The
BOBCATS (Bend Oregon Bicycle Club and Tandem Society) are
delighted to sponsor the 20th annual NWTR to be held July
1st through July 4th, 2005 in Bend, Oregon. Check out the
different pages of our website for information on accommodations,routes
and rally activities, as well as events and tourist attractions
available in Bend and surrounding Central Oregon.
Our
venue is the beautiful Summit High School. Located on Bend's
west side, Summit is surrounded by stunning views of the Cascades.
For those of you who have not yet been fortunate enough to
visit this area, Bend is a major tourist and recreation destination
in the northwest. A city of 60,000 that rests at 3,600 feet
above sea level, Bend boasts more than 275 restaurants, lovely
views of the mountains, and quick access to an abundance of
outdoor activities.
We
have reserved blocks of hotel rooms at special NWTR rates
for rally attendees. For outdoor lovers, camping and RV parking
is available at Summit High School, the starting venue for
supported rides. See "Where to stay" for detailed
information.
Be
sure to save time for the special evening events. Apres-ride
on Saturday we'll have an old-fashioned Ice Cream Social and
Vendor Fair at Summit High. Sunday night is the Rally Banquet
BBQ to be held under the stars at the lovely Old Mill District
near downtown Bend.
