Friday, May 17, 2013 - Sunday, May 19, 2013
Burkesville, Kentucky
Last Updated: 04/23/2013 - 10:34

The Rally dates are set and hope you will mark your calendar to join us this year. Riders from all over the country gather to enjoy some of the best riding in the Southeast through the foothills of Kentucky and Tennessee. The natural beauty of this area was noted by naturalist and "Father of Our National Parks", John Muir in his famous Thousand Mile Walk to the Gulf.

There is free camping on the banks of the beautiful Cumberland River which runs along quaint downtown Burkesville, KY. There are well maintained restrooms and showering facilities that will open starting on Thursday, May
16 for the early arrivals (bring your own towel and soap) and a covered pavilion with a fire pit. For those traveling in RVs there is limited RV parking behind the Agriculture Building with additional spots in the general camping area just past the restroom & shower facilities, look for the RV power pedestal.

Most people take advantage of the free camping but for those who prefer hotels reservations are available at the Riverfront Lodge (walking distance from the rally site) by calling (270)-864-3300. Register early for the Riverfront as the rooms there tend to fill up. Unfortunately, the Alpine Lodge will not be available in 2013. We have not used these hotels in the past but some we know of are The Best Western Albany Garden, Sulphur Creek Resorts, Burkesville, KY; Hendricks Creek Resort; Hendricks Creek Road, Burkesville, KY; The Old Coe House B&B, Burkesville, KY and the Dale Hollow Lake State Park.

6:00 am for the early risers.

Bloodworth Motorsports, our BMW dealer in Nashville, has agreed to provide a free lunch to all paid participants on Saturday. Both Saturday's lunch and dinner are now included with the registration fee. Bloodworth's has been a great friend of the Rally and we are excited they will be joining us again.
