The 49er Rally is the BMW Motorcycle Club of Northern California's annual Memorial Day Weekend rally, with more than 50 years of tradition that predates the BMW Motorcycle Owners of America's (MOA) National Rally.  This is one of the West’s premier BMW Rallies not to be missed!

As always, Rally goers can expect 4 nights of grassy tent camping, optional RV camping with water and electrical hook-ups, hot showers, cold drinks, great food, clinics, speakers, vendor displays, prize giveaways, and the camaraderie of lot of fantastic people from all over!  Plus, this year your Saturday Dinner and beverages in our hospitality center are included for the early bird registrations!  Check out the Event Website for more details on the Rally including our speaker lineup, entertainment options, daily events, food vendors and more!

Camp in Luxury

Sherpa Packers is happy to announce that they will be supporting the 49er Rally with their valet tent service starting in 2024!  You may have seen them at the MOA National Rallies the last few years, or at the Top of the Rockies Rally in Colorado. Sherpa Packers offers you the option to camp at the 49er Rally without bringing all of your camping gear. They supply a tent you can stand up in, cots, sleeping pads, sleeping bags, bag liners, pillows, and camp chairs along with  an electronics charging station for you, good strong coffee in the morning and fresh towel service.  For some serious upgrades, check out our glamping options. Get all the details and make you reservations at sherpapackers.com

Improve your Skills

Everyone can always use some more training.  This year we are proud to offer GS training from Rawhyde, an exciting program for  police style slow speed riding by SlowRide taught by leading police motorcycle trainers and a special woman's only adventure clinic taught by BMW Brand Ambassador, past GS Challenge participant and BMW MOA Board Member Louise Powers. Check out all the details on our training page and sign up.

Show off your Skills

We have three riding competitions to challenge you.  Back again this year is Dennis Godwin's famous GS Challenge course that will test all your skills. We have an Asphalt cone challenge that can put your SlowRide skills to the test.  And be sure and participate in our every popular English Trials skills ride where the slowest rider with the fewest dabs wins. 

Do Good-Support the Grapplers!

We are really excited to announce the Golden Grapplers wrestling club will be back in action serving breakfast, lunch and dinner in the Redbud room!  Don't miss out on excellent meals while supporting the local wrestling team. 

Preorder your custom beverage glass

New this year we are offering custom rally stainless pint glasses and wine glasses for entrance to  our complimentary hospitality center.  Get access to exclusive VIP service too and don't get stuck in a long line with wimpy 6 oz plastic cups!  Without the custom beverage glass your beverages will be limited to 6oz pours.  Pre Order on with your registration and save $5.
