CE – THIS IS A CLOSED RIDE TO THE PUBLIC. MEMBERS MAY BRING TWO GUESTS WITH THEM.
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.)
PLEASE BRING YOUR SM HOG MEMBERSHIP CARD FOR CURRENT STATUS!
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 just show up for this event YOU WILL NEED TO SIGN UP ON THE WEBSITE BY FRIDAY, JUNE 15th, if you would like a free lunch which will consist of Hot Dog, Chips, Cookies, Water or Soda. If you sign up after June 15th then we cannot guarantee you a free lunch. This will allow us enough time to purchase the correct amount of food and beverages.
As with the last couple 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 them and the American Flag to SMH-D and park in the back. The front entrance will not be accessible. This will be the termination point for this ride but in the back of the dealership.
Destination this year is going to the the dealership as in the past even though it is on a Monday which is a day they are normally closed. The dealership will only be open to Chapter members and riders that participate in this ride / event. It is not open for normal business.
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 Monday you will need a form for that day as well.
