Nope....
$25 per head, $5 per vehicle (Gate Fee)
That allows you to ride Friday night (Pit area), Saturday, Saturday Night, and Sunday till noon........all for $25
It's our 40th Pumpkin Run and we have decided to give back to the folks who have made it possible to do this run for 40 years.
Windshield sticker if you need to go to a hotel or home and return, and a wrist band that must be worn the entire time....NO exceptions.

Not this year...it's $25 per person
You can come in with 10 quads and it's giong to only cost you $30.00, $25 for you and a $5 gate fee for your vehicle.
You get a wrist band once you sign the waiver, and your vehicle get's a sticker on the windshield.
It's pay back time, our way of saying thank you to those who have made this event a success for the last 39 years.

I'm coming either way but since I always come with 1 quad and 2 people, it will actually cost me more. Last year it was $40 but now it will be $50 since I have 2 people. So, it's not really helping me save anything.
I'm not complaining about the price, I think its worth it anyways. Just thought I'd give my perspective!

asmart82, That situation was brought up during our decision process, and the number of one person per bike out numbered the two-up per bike, sorry about that, but like you say, it will be well worth it. |

The property is about two miles south of 44 on 415 in Samsula. There will be aprox. 20 miles of arrowed trails. There is plenty of room for primative camping (no hook ups), bring your generator. There will be showers and a bike wash station again this year as well. |

I would say about a third or more of the trails are holding water. We actually avoided some areas because the water is a little too deep. what does not have water or sugar sand is virgin trail......we made lots of new trail. The good news is that the camping field has finally dried up, but the mud hole still has plenty of water and so does the slough. On the north loop, we may have to divert 2X4 and non-snorkeled bikes around one stretch of trail........Too WET....  Two weeks is still a long way off, I kinda hope we get a little rain just before the run followed by some nice COOL temps. |
