Good point, this has been mentioned as a semi-rally kinda thing before. Not a "rally" per se, but another g2g as p8ntr would say. Gets us all together in anticipation for the annual rally

I like Ocala for a rally, it feels more like a traditional rally and has a sense of familiarity to it for the memories that are made there - kind of like hallowed ground.

I just noticed that SP mentioned in another thread that this year would be the 5th Annually Rally

5 years is a milestone - we should do something special for this rally to celebrate 5 years of the Florida Crew!

One thing we vowed is not to blow this thing outta proportion, don't let it become a commercialized event so large it becomes more work that enjoyment. Honestly, it's always a great time no matter because we all know how to have a good time.

Let's leave Ocala alone, maybe add more days to it, and just add smaller rally's a couple of times per year.

I must say.....I love Ocala in the fall and you just can't beat the riding up there. I 2nd the Pre-Ocala (prep rally) concept. Maybe a spring fling kinda vibe.......some place we could gather around a fire, toss down some "cold chillies" and shoot the chit. Sounds god to me................
