I was checking in on the Scooter Battalion in Houston who had mentioned this Rally coming up in Dallas. Here’s what a d r had to say about it:
Turns out that, the same weekend (March 3-4) as the Sandblast Rally in Galveston, there is a vintage Euro bike and scooter rally in Dallas. Though there aren’t much details on the event’s MySpace page, what is clear is this event is not intended for plastic shell (and presumably more modern metal) scoots. Truth be told, I can’t even figure out how much this costs, what that includes, where the meetup is, or what activities take place during the weekend.
Apparently since that message was posted (1/19/07) there have been some updates. I saw the ride itinerary, lodging info (ooOOoo the Belmont!)… actually if you want additional info you should check out the Get Bent SC site. The cost is FREE! But, bring $15 or so to buy a shirt. Should be a BLAST! (now would be a good time to clone myself so I can attend both rallys). Mods AND Rockers welcomed.

I’ve talked with a friend of mine about the possibility of riding down from KC to Galveston for the Sandblast Rally.
