Scarborough Bicycle Accident Law presents the 1st Annual Bend Dirt Fest – Saturday, July 12th.

In this video, Central Oregon 360’s Recreation Leader Trevor Christianson catches up with Mike Ripley of Mudslinger Events to talk about an exciting new event: the Bend Dirt Fest!

This multi-discipline race has something for everyone—runners and riders alike. Participants can choose from three epic challenges: a half marathon trail run, a 54-mile gravel grinder, or a 36-mile mountain bike course. Go solo and race against the clock, or team up with one or two friends and combine your times to take on other teams. But it’s not just about the race—Bend Dirt Fest is a celebration. Enjoy live music, ice-cold beer from 10 Barrel Brewing, and a vendor village featuring the latest in gear, apparel, and local crafts.

So grab your crew and make it to Bend Dirt Fest for a day of adventure, community, and everything that makes Central Oregon awesome. Our thanks to Subaru of Bend, Tumalo Creek Kayak and Canoe, Idaho First Bank, and Recreation Leader for making these videos possible.
