A curious feature of the USCA is that we are chartered members of the BMW Clubs International. As such, we are members of the BMW Riders Association Club and the BMW Motorcycle Owners of America (MOA). Any member of the USCA is entitled to member rates at either of their National Ralies. I post here, the invitation for all USCA members to the BMWMOA Rally in Vermont this year. Their rally is the weekend following the USCA National Rally and could be quite the adventure for our members who wish to "make a trip of it!"

Debating going to this. I have to take another shot at fixing the leaking carb on my R100 rig first.

If you go to the BMW MOA Rally, there will be 37 riders there with complete rebuild kits for your carbs.

I can only hope there will be a large contingent of airhead owners so if something goes wrong I have a better chance at making it back. lol

I predict there will be hundreds. Also any help will be available at Airheads Central. Heck I've seen them do engine overhauls and transmission replacements at a rally!

BriSco, isn't that one of the requirements for attending a BMW MOA Rally...is that all attendees must participate in a hands on class of Airhead engine rebuild and transmission replacement ???
For the Oilhead owners, they must attend the class on Rear Differential and Shaft Drive replacement.

Miles I think that requirement has been relaxed a bit. Now optional.
I tend to just spectate when they get that deep.
I am planning to ride my Airhead ('84 R80RT) to the Vermont rally this year, leaving the sidecar rig at home.

@thane-lewis Plans are underway. Leaving Maine @ May 30 for a ride down the Blue Ridge Parkway with stops at the Wheels Through time and Barber Vintage museums. Depending on available time it could include Tail of the Dragon and other epic rides en route to Mena for our USCA rally and from there on to the MOA rally in Vermont followed by a short ride home.
MOA rally coming up this week.
My carb issue turned out not to be the carb but old fuel hose right before the carb. To give the airhead guys something to do I could really use a carb sync as I never got around to building a home-made manometer. Maybe someone there will have a fancy electronic one.
Pulled the super tall windcreen off the Velorex chair for hopefully slightly improved fuel economy up to Vermont 🤣
I'm just hoping for limited or passing only showers as I'll be tent camping. Not sure if USCA has a club space. I figured i'd do a lap and look for some side cars to pitch my tent near.
Yeah. The rain at the USCA Rally was……excessive?
