2015 Cal24 Announcement (June 12th - 14th, 2015)

[Alex]

From Tom....

We are proud to announce that the 2015 Cal 24 Rally will be held on June 12th - 14th, 2015. It will start and finish near Roseville, CA. Entry is open to everyone with a motorcycle capable of making the trip, a great attitude and interest in taking part of one of motorcycling’s great adventures. New rally riders are welcome, and we go out of our way to make it a fun and enjoyable experience. This year's event will include both a full 24 hour rally, as well as a 12 hour version. They will both start at the same time (Saturday Morning), with the 12 simply ending earlier. The base route for the 24-hr event will be slightly over 1,000 miles. There will be opportunities to add to that mileage with a wide range of bonus opportunities.

The entry fee for a single rider entry in the Cal 24 is $200. Cost for a Couple is $250. (12 hr event is $150 single / $200 couple). Minimum donation for a single is $50 and $100 for a couple. For this, riders get the Rally, a long sleeve riding shirt, a pre-rally BBQ, awards banquet, awards, and door prizes.

More information from Tom this afternoon:

The info and application are up on the cal24.com website. As many know I have been dealt a serious health issue which will severely limit my ability to put on the rally. Thanks to my good friends Bob Mutchler, Jerry White, Mark Crane and others, the rally will still go on.

I've had many, many people ask if there is any thing they can do. I understand how people feel about it. You would like to do something, but are lost as to what you can do. Well here is something my motorcycle friends CAN do, sign up for the Cal24! Nothing would me happier than knowing that the rally will continue, with or without me. If you cannot ride, contact Bob Mutchler and make a donation to Polio Plus.

Hurm, may be able to swing over to Roseville to see everyone on Saturday and what happens at the start of a Rally.

Or you could, you know, ride it.

Nah, after reading numerous ride reports, I've decided that I've no interest in riding rallies myself. They are fun to hear about, so if I can attend award banquets without riding that's what I'd like to do.

Which reminds me I need to check on BMR's banquet info....
