We are still here, and in 2014 we are going to be stronger than ever. Because many different organizations and clubs are supporting and participating in this rally as a means of joining forces, we are expecting in excess of 1000 bikers to be there and have reserved parking for 5000! There will be many speakers and this rally (on a Saturday) will show just which politicians really back us. This event will be on Saturday, January 11, 2014 at 12 noon at the Capitol building in Sacramento.
