GOLD RUSH

Saturday, August 8 – Monday, August 10, 2026

This year’s Gold Rush ride destination is John Day, OR. No sign-up necessary. Just show up at Govy and you are entered in the weekend of shenanigans.

Important updates due to big fires along the Goldrush route (see especially #6):

  1. The dual sport route for the Gold Rush to John Day is cancelled due to fire activity on the route and surrounding the route.  

  2. The street ride is still a go and we are monitoring the fire activity and road closures. We will determine a safe route for riders that will not interfere with fire containment activities.

  3. Dual sport riders are welcomed and encouraged to come on the street ride and the Sunday dual sport day ride will likely be an option as there are no fires near the route.

  4. The Dreamers Motel is fully booked for Saturday and Sunday night. The John Day Motel has availability (and is just three blocks away).  250 E Main St, John Day, OR 97845 (541) 575-9000.

  5. Camping is available at the Grant County Fairgrounds for $10/night and it is 2 blocks from the Dreamers Motel.  There are showers and bathrooms at the Fairgrounds that are open to campers.  

  6. Fun will still be had.
