In 2011 this was a NEW event at Maize Valley which included not only
vintage motorcycles, but also some really cool military displays. This
year the proceeds are going to a local officer who was KIA this past
fall.
Registration for road rally opens at 9:30am bikes may
leave as they please with a group set to leave approx. at 10:00.
Details for 2012 are still in the works but we expect much of the same.
Arriving later will be the Marlboro Volunteers traveling history museum which depicts USA military life thru the years.
Also on hand will be the Army sponsored race car team - both dragster
and funny cars. Marlboro Fire Department will display at least two fire
trucks, with possible participation from nearby departments depending
upon need. The Blue Star Mothers and USO will also be on hand as will
Pegasus Farms.
