Bald Eagle Jamboree
July 14-17, 2022...An intimate, small scale rally held in the amazing Bald Eagle State Forest in Central Pennsylvania. Participation will be limited to 30 riders. Exceptional mountain views and exceptional ADV, Dual Sport, and ADV Dual Sporting can be found in one of the best riding areas in upper Appalachia.
Rally check-in will occur the afternoon of the 14th. Loops covering Intermediate to Advanced skill levels will be available in the Bald Eagle and Rothrock wilderness including dirt and gravel forest roads, challenging drivable trails, and the Bald Eagle Dual Sport trails. Appalachian ADV has put together multiple loops to include ADV Dual Sporting routes as well as two loops on the Bald Eagle Dual Sport trails that are big bike friendly but challenging.
Three nights of camping as well as two breakfasts and two dinners are included in the cost of admission. Participants are responsible for their own gas, meals, hydration, and any incidentals on the courses.
Participants will receive email communications prior to the event with more information.
Appalachian ADV is a Recreational Promoter Charter with the American Motorcyclist Association. Membership is not required to attend our Sanctioned events but we do encourage you to give them a look and join!

- BEDS North Flowy is a 28 mile loop on a northern section of the Bald Eagle Dual Sport Trails. This piece of trail includes some excellent flowy sections but does include some rock garden passes. This is a good section to get your feet wet, for a half day of riding, or to combine with the Poe Intermediate ADV Loop.
- BEDS South Rocky is a 73 mile loop on a southern section of trail and includes some great rocky trails, drivable trails, and a couple of the single tracks.
- Ratings are based on ADV bikes for the ADV Loops, both BEDS routes should be considered Expert/Advanced. The ADV Loops would be considered Intermediate for smaller Dual Sport bikes. The BEDS tracks would also be an Intermediate (for a majority) to Intermediate-Expert level for Dual Sports.

Disclaimers: Participants of Appalachian ADV Rallies and Group Tour events must be a minimum age of 18 years old. Waiver forms will be made available and completion is required prior to participation. Appalachian ADV events are an all-weather affair, we like nature and everything it throws at us. A minimum 50/50 tire is required but Appalachian ADV strongly suggests a more dirt-oriented tire that includes some level of knobblies. Appropriate armor for your body and bike as well as the appropriate skill, mental toughness, and attitude are also required! The goal is to challenge yourself and have fun! So, be prepared to pick up your bike with a smile!
