Yes- the 19th Annual Fall Classic is on for this year. It will be November 10-12.We'll be camping at the same site: Calabasas Group Site down by Nogales on Saturday night .
There is a registration cost. It'll probably be $25 dollars this year (subject to change). The cost includes your campground fee, all the beer you can drink Saturday night, a rally t-shirt and patch, admission to the club on Friday night (Club Congress) and possibly some other goodies. Anyone can ride for free, the registration is just if you want to get the wristband that entitles you to all the stuff above.
Friday:
Registration and
The Suicide Girls at Club Congress
Saturday:
Ride to the campsite
Scarab sponsored BBQ
NO FIREWORKS! Passing on the right is allowed and Arizona is a open carry state.

November 9th, 10th, 11th, 2007

Come be a part of scooter history and ride in one of the oldest scooter rallies in the South West U.S. The rally begins at the Hotel Congress in historic downtown Tucson. Come down on the 9th starting at 6pm for rally registration, mingling, music, drinks and, of course, scooters. The hotel fills up very quickly, so click on the link below to reserve your room NOW! FYI the hotel does supply secured scooter parking.

Saturday morning, the rally departs from the Hotel Congress for a 125-mile ride through the beautiful scenic landscape of southwestern Arizona. We will have a mid-way stop in the rustic town of Patagonia for gas, drinks and to stretch our legs. From Patagonia, we will continue on through Nogales, Arizona to our legendary, isolated, reserved, group campsite in the Coronado National Forest.

At the Calabasas campsite, we will be greeted by a catered BBQ, multiple kegs of beer, music and a bonfire. Several campsites, firepits, firewood and restroom are available. It can get cold at the campsite, so don't forget tents, sleeping bags and other camping gear.

Sunday, we will awaken from our hangovers for a Mexican breakfast of eggs, potatoes, coffee, chorizo, tortillas and menudo.

For more information: Contact Matthew or Megan Noli @ 520.591.6945 or tucsonrally@hotmail.com

Attention: Any scooter clubs, old or new, that have participated in this historic scooter rally in the past, please contact Matthew in order for your club to receive acknowledgement at this years rally.
