Its simple, just tell us your e-mail
address and we'll send you the application and waiver. Print them, fill them out and mail them with
your entry fee. The Oasis that the rally is being held
at can hold approximately 300 riders, so there is a good

What's
new for this rally?
We have added
a couple of new things to our program for this event. As
I am sure most of you have figured out we really try
hard to make these events fun, unique, and a great value
for your money. We are very passionate about the world
of Adventure Riding! We want to do a great job with our
rally series, and we want you to return time and time
again because you have confidence in us, so below are
our two "improvements" for this rally. ( we are going to
keep trying new things, some will work, and will be
incorporated into our overall plans, and others won't -
so please give us feedback)
RawHyde
Food-
The Secret Rally will be catered by
RawHyde. In prior events we have contracted with a Bar
BQ caterer, and while we got good feedback, we think we
can do a better job, and offer higher quality food,
Additionally we have a reputation for Great Food, and we
want that to continue. The next email regarding the
event will contain the menu for rally... Trust me... its
going to be great. Those of you who have participated in
any of RawHydes training camps or tours will know what I
am talking about.
Wine with
your meal?
This will be an
optional item. * note the option on your application.
The food that we will be serving at this rally is worthy
of a good glass of wine. We are working with one of Napa
Valleys premier wineries to be able to offer you a
spectacular bottle of wine with your meal on Saturday
night. For a measly 10 bucks it a great way to add some
elegance to your desert evening.
General
Details:
OK here are the basics, Registration
will begin at 4 PM on Thursday the 2nd of Feb. The Price
is $199 including a place to camp, all meals (Dinner
Thurs. through Breakfast Sunday) and a souvenir shirt.
More details are coming soon.
Motels,
Gasoline: and other services
-
There is a small (very small ) town about 15 miles from
the rally site, with a gas station, small motel ( 14
rooms ) and a store. If you want to reserve a motel room
for the event please let me know, and I will make the
reservations. There is also a Bed & Breakfast a very
short distance from the rally site, they have 8 beds
available for a "group" that all know one another. If
any of you want to book the B&B as a group, just
give me a call and we can handle it for
you.
Motorhomes:
We will have
room for 20 or 30 motorhomes at the Oasis, and if
necessary there will be room on the edge of the entry
road to the oasis. There is also a public campground not
far away, but we can't tell you where just yet.... It
would ruin the secret.
The
weather:
February is usually a
beautiful month in the desert, and hopefully this year
will be no exception. Here is a weather graph, which
shows the temperatures typical of the area in
February... (this is off of the Death Valley website)
and the weather there is similar to our
"site". |
