Manufacturer Demo Rides - Come ride the latest
models from some of the top manufacturers. Choose from more than a dozen models
and experience them in an open road environment that you
just can't get in the city.
Twisties, Dinner and a Star Show - Always a
favorite this ride includes a twisty route to Goldendale

then head up to the Observatory for a star show and a
chance to glimpse the cosmos through the largest
open-to-the-public telescope on the West Coast.

of the top chefs in the Columbia River Gorge will
tantalize your taste buds with great meals on Saturday
before and after the Maryhill Loops run. Vegetarian
options are available too.
Ride Board - A posting board will be available
for those who want to meet others for rides. Here
you'll be able to post your interest in putting together
a ride
along with the time and day you plan to do it so others
can ride with you. It's a great way to meet new acquaintances
along the way. Part of the fun of Sportbike Northwest
is meeting new people!
Northwest/Motorcycle Trivia Game -
Put a team together of up to six people and test your
knowledge about motorcycles and about the Northwest.
This fun game will no doubt be a nice ice breaker to
kick the rally off with allowing you to play with old
friends and meet new friends - or should we say - MINDS!
12 categories (6 motorcycle, 6 Northwest) of 5 questions
each - may the best team win.

compact for motorcycle touring. We get into the

your ride experience a comfortable and practical one.

make you dizzy with all the twists and turns you'll be
enjoying along the route. Don't miss it!

long designed to give you insight into performance
riding skills, suspension mods and road maintenance.
Silent Auction - You won't want to miss our
Saturday evening program as we dole out the prize money from the

and breakfast snacks.
