2011 Team Lyle 8-Hour Rally
June 18, 2011
With the Minnesota 1000 having moved off to late July this year,
we found ourselves feeling kinda sad about the traditional June weekend when the
MN1K would normally be held. A number of our friends will be heading off to the
Iron Butt Rally, and those of us not riding in that were feeling a bit forlorn.
Then we thought...Hey! Let’s come up with something fun and different for
ourselves to do that weekend.
And so we did. TeamStrange is proud to announce the inaugural edition of the
Team Lyle 8 Hour Rally, an opportunity to gather with friends old and new on
Saturday, June 18th, for eight hours of Minnesota 1000-style fun.
Bob’s Java Hut (find it) will be rally
headquarters for the start and the finish. All riders will receive a route sheet
(no photo bonuses), a rally shirt and decals, with all entry fees above these
costs donated directly to Eddie’s Road.
The rally will be an excellent opportunity for new riders to get a taste of what
the Minnesota 1000 is like, for experienced riders who no longer enjoy riding at
night or in more competitive events, and for everyone to raise money for a most
worthy charitable cause. While the route sheet will provide challenges for those
who enjoy true competition, we also encourage entrants to consider riding their
non-rally bikes, vintage iron or even a sidecar rig. It should be a hoot.
What would Eddie do?
