Dirt Rag Dirt Fest WV is now called Bike Bash at Big Bear West Virginia. The Big Bear Lake Trail Center has hosted the event for the past three years and is excited to keep the tradition alive and celebrate the cycling lifestyle. The Bike Bash at Big Bear West Virginia will feature some of the best bike brands, accessories and more for a family friendly weekend with live music, food vendors and on-site camping.

Over the years, the team at Big Bear has invested a lot of time, effort and expense to make the venue perfectly suited to host our ‘gathering of the tribe'. With miles of trails, a performance stage, large pavilion, community bonfire ring, potable water, hot showers and plenty of flat-ground camping, Big Bear has all the ingredients required to make Bike Bash at Big Bear West Virginia a rousing success.

The trails at Big Bear feature more technical terrain. Big rock features, most notably “The Crack” (which is literally a crack in a huge rock through which the trail cuts), offer a challenge. But there are plenty of more mellow trails for beginners as well.

Hope to see you in July!

If you are sleeping on the Airstrip, main camping area, you must purchase onsite camping. This includes; sharing a tent with a friend, sleeping on a camp table, sleeping in a roof-top tent, using a hammock, etc. If your sleeping in someone's RV who has already purchased a pass with onsite camping you are still required to purchase a pass with onsite camping, as you are camping on site.

All on-site camping is communal camping, which means you will share a campsite with other campers. Be ready to make some new friends!
Group Camping: You will be asked if you want to be assigned to group camping during the online registration process. We cannot guarantee all campers their own group site. Our goal is to have groups seven or larger have their own site, but there are times where we need to combine people and/or groups together. Please make sure your whole group uses the same name so no one gets mixed up or left out of the group. Enter the full group name and not just an acronym. If you do not enter a group name you will be put in individual camping.
If your group is less than seven people, you will be slotted to camp in the Individual Camping Area. Don't panic, there is plenty of space!
Individual Camping: If you don't have a group, that's okay! List yourself as an Individual on the next page. You will share a campsite with other individual campers.
There are no specific site reservations.
Once camping sells out, we will open a wait list. If someone in your group didn't sign up in time, they can join the wait list. Encourage your group to sign up ASAP!
