@2FLTC I can take credit for having the vision for the logo, but by no means am I personally responsible for the fine artwork!

TexasBulldogger, I see the same post on ADVRider, that inmate Stroker says he has registered for the rally.

I have to wonder if he means he has registered for a camping spot, or an RV spot, or lodging somewhere.

It would be a serious error if the inmates on ADVRider, or the face cracks on  Facebook could register for the USCA National Sidecar Rally before members of the USCA had the opportunity to register for OUR National Sidecar Rally.

Yes, I know there is no limit (yet) on how many people can register for the USCA National Sidecar Rally, but there is a limited number of camping spots and RV spots.

I’m a bit gun shy. Not the first time rally announcements were off this site.  

Grumpy old man I’ve become won’t be relieved until rally posting replaces Flint Hills on our events calendar.

I have my hotel reservation at Comfort Inn.  Will be making an overnight somewhere NE of NYC.  Brunswick is 8 hours by non stop car ride from SE PA.  Haven’t done a full day of riding in a long time. Plenty of fill lup to fill up short jumps. Figure five hours each day will be the goal.

Merry Christmas everyone. Heading to Surfside TX for annual family gathering for New Year.

Texas Bulldogger....well strap my face to the side of a pig, and roll me in the mud.

We are also reserved for the Comfort Inn, in Brunswick, which now makes it the official Sidecar Hotel for next year's National Sidecar Rally.

That's right....all you sidecarists and sideczarists, if you are not camping or RVing, then we need to FILL the Comfort Inn, in Brunswick, Maine, with all guests being Sidecar owners.

WARNING: Please be patient!!!!!  The rally registration pages are not complete just yet. Yes, the first page is complete and some have found it. BUT the back up pages where shirts sizes ordered, names, etc. are tallied, and other details from your registration are compiled are not complete and tested. Which means if you registered today, yes we will take your payment. But we might not have your name badge or correct shirt size for you at the rally. 

So if you found the 2025 Rally registration page today, know it is not completely functioning just yet.

Once it is, I'll post that announcement and the link!

Thank you,

Jan Daub

I think we can thank Ace and Monica for hosting such a successful, enjoyable 2024 Rally in Iuka for the heightened interest in the 2025 rally.  With everyone's help, we'll keep building success on top of success.

Question for  THEE Rallymaster:  Whom is assigned to,  or has volunteered to.....Bring da Donuts & Holes ?

Don't  laugh this  off, Dear Rallymaster, as Donuts & Holes are serious  business  with sidecarists....sideczarists....and their Monkeys.

Evidence  has shown that even a small number of  sidecarists and  their  monkeys  can devour an entire inventory  at a local bakery.

Before I  volunteer,  as I  don't want to  usurp the  position  or authority of someone  before me,  or more matriculated in the arts of choosing the  best Donuts & Holes for  sidecarists and  monkeys  consumption, can you, Oh Mighty Rallymaster, tell us if a willing and  knowledgeable hominid has been  assigned,  or volunteered for  this prestigious  mission  ?

@miles-ladue to date there has been no one else to volunteer or be assigned this prestigious position.  Should you so desire, it can be yours.  Primary resources in the area would be Dunkin' donuts or the various local supermarket bakeries.  A recent entree to the local scene is The Holy Donut, a Maine institution who crafts their delicacies utilizing potato flour and are known for unique and creative morsels.  Another local institution that has been in Brunswick for years is Frosty's, though I am not sure of their current status as the struggled somewhat through Covid.  I believe they are still in operation but on a more limited scope.

Hmmm..... pondering.

If I were to volunteer for this prestigious position, I would insist that the Donut and Hole expenses be taken out of my wallet, and not be paid for by the Rally budget.

     Well with the National Rally being so close to NY, I just had to register for it.  It will be our first and we will also be staying at the Comfort Inn in Brunswick.  We are looking forward to this!
