2025 Not-A-Notta Rally

This event is a kind of spiritual successor to Silke Crombie's Nottarally, and Rick Kiehna's fall get together before it, starting in the 2000's I believe.

Rick passed away and Silke took over in 2012, my first year at one of the ADVRider rallies. It left a big impression. This past year we lost Silke as well, but gathered still to remember her and be together.

I was asked if I would take over the fall event and so here we are. This is primarily a dual sport and adventure bike gathering but all are welcome. There will be no costs to attend besides what you owe the campground and maybe a few bucks for firewood.

We will have sites A, B, and C reserved for us. Check in at the office when you arrive to pay camping costs and you'll be good to go. If you need a cabin or camper site or anything beyond field camping, try to book early with the campground. No generators after 10pm please.

There may be a meal for purchase involved on Friday or Saturday, but we'll see. It's only a maybe at this point. Otherwise this is a BYOB type event. Bring firewood or a few bucks to contribute if you can, as well as whatever else you may need.

There are no official rides for Not-A-Notta but plenty of good pavement, gravel, and more in the area. Link up with some of our noble ride leaders for a good time. Some will post their plans here and others will save it for the fire pit. Just ask around if you're not sure.
