O – THIS IS AN OPEN RIDE TO THE PUBLIC. RIDERS WILL BE REQUIRED TO SIGN A NOP RELEASE FORM
PLEASE ARRIVE 20 – 30 MINUTES PRIOR TO THE PRE-RIDE BRIEFING! (This will allow you time to visit other riders, use the restroom, fuel up, get a cup of coffee, etc.)

First things first. I would like to ask that riders, servers, and participants show up an hour before the pre-ride briefing, which is at 10 am, to assist with setting up canopy’s, tables, and chairs and we will need help after the event putting things away. If you can help it would be greatly appreciated and please be there around 9:00 am.
If you are a rider, server, or show up for this event to help setup and tear down, YOU WILL NEED TO SIGN UP ON THE WEBSITE BY SATURDAY, JUNE 14TH, if you would like a free lunch which will consist of Hot Dog, Chips, Cookies, Water or Soda. If you sign up after June 14th then we cannot guarantee you a free lunch. This will allow us enough time to purchase the correct amount of food and beverages. Once again….the lunch is only for the SMHOG riders, servers, and the Cornell Group.
As with the last three years we will be receiving the American flag from the Cornell / Rock Store group down south.
We will meet and escort the group from Buellton. We will escort the Cornell Riders and the American Flag to SMH-D. This will be the termination point for this ride.
You must bring a signed release form with you or you cannot ride with the group. YOU DO NOT NEED TO REGISTER WITH NoP AND THEIR WEBSITE. JUST DOWNLOAD, PRINT, AND BRING THE RELEASE FORM. If you ride to Salinas on Thursday, June 19th you will need a form for that day as well.
