Try these: Freedom Rally, Buckhorn, MO. Usually coincides with memorial day weekend. Bikes, Blues, and BBQ in Fayetteville, AR. Usually occurs last weekend in Sept. Been to both, and both r pretty cool.

You have the Mt Garfield hill climb in muskegon. Benny's bike rally in midland, they say that is getting better than fowlerville. And fowlerville.

Check out the Dennis Kirk Patriot Ride in eastern Mn, north of Mpls. One of the largest in our state, and a huge fundraiser for the troops and their families. Saturday, June 20th. Last year over $70,000 was raised, with 1100 riders, taking 22 minutes to pass by on the highway (official word from Mn State Patrol!)

That's me waving at the camera on the home page, riding my restored '84 Venture, before it became parts on Ebay.
