2012 European Riders Rally May 18th - 20th
Burkesville, Kentucky

Riders from all over the country gather to enjoy some of the best riding in the Southeast through the foothills of Kentucky and Tennessee. There is free camping on the banks of the beautiful Cumberland River which runs through the middle of quaint downtown Burkesville, KY. There are well maintained toilet and showering facilities (bring your own towel and soap) and a covered pavilion with a fire pit. Hotel reservations are available at both the Riverfront Hotel and Alpine Lodge by calling one number (270-864-3300) for those who prefer hotels. This year there is a free shuttle from the Alpine Hotel on Saturday afternoon and evening. Register early as the rooms tend to fill up.

Rally riders will be treated to a complimentary lunch provided Saturday by Bloodworth Motorcycles, a free steak dinner with all the trimmings on Saturday night and a complimentary Sunday morning breakfast. Riders will also enjoy a Blue Grass Band Friday Night and a top notch live Nashville band, seminars on riding skills, lessons on bike maintenance, door prizes, a 50/50 drawing and free coffee and lemonade all weekend.

Both guided tours and self guided rides will be offered to the old English style town of Rugby, the Maker's Mark distillery and various scenic locations in the area. It is a rider's paradise.
