Last years Not-a-rally in Visalia was a great success (despite the difficulties getting there) so plans have been made for another. It will be the weekend of April 14-15 and will be at the Lamplighter Hotel just like last year.
For those that did not make it last year, it was a great weekend. Most people who could get through the freakishly bad weather (a little snow never hurt anyone) made it on Friday and we had dinner at a fine rib joint. Ones that couldn’t, met up Saturday morning or at lunch. Saturday was some great spring sierra foothill riding that ended at a small moto collection full of BSA’s, and other great brit bikes. Dinner Saturday night was at a private room at the hotel close to the bar. Dave and Jamileh who are local lead another ride on Sunday for the folks that didn’t need to get home right away. All in all a great weekend.
This is a not a rally so all you need to do is make yourself a hotel reservation and get yourself there. No registration, no pins, no t-shirts, no catered meals, or anything else that you don’t bring yourself. Lampliter Inn website is http://lampliter.net/. A block of rooms has been reserved under “Visalia NAR” for the 13th-14th. If you ask for a ground floor room with a window, you should be able to park right in front and keep an eye on your moto. As if anyone would steal a Guzzi.
Hotel rate is $59 plus tax and there is a 48 hour cancellation policy.
