I received an announcement email yesterday for the Milwaukee Motor Classic Rally for this year. The dates of the rally are August 27th - 31st and correspond with Harley Davidson’s 105th celebration. As usually the Harley Davidson dealers in the are are pulling out all the stops to make this a fun filled time. There are 2 different levels that you can participate in but I would recommend the Big Wheel Poker Run package level myself (of course that’s partially due to the fact that I’m cheap too!). It’ll cost you $15 and it gets you every thing but the rocker and the t-shirt. Now I know most of you are absolutely dying to have another black t-shirt in your closet and that’s up to you but I’ve got enough. Matter of fact if I get one more black t-shirt in the closet, I’m going to have to have extra lighting put in there to counteract the black.
Anyway, all of the Harley Davidson dealers in the are putting on quite a show. With bands playing at each location, which happen to be the stops for the poker run also, to midget wrestling and bikini contests. The final stop for the poker run is the Potawatomi Casino. At each location you will receive your card for the poker run and a personalized dog-tag.
Now the important thing. This is all part of Harley Davidson’s celebration of the 105th year birthday. Here’s an excerpt of the announcement:
