About the Rally

Roll The Bones is the premeier adventure / dual sport rally in Texas. It is not a race (depending on who you ask) but it embodies the spirit of racing, pushing yourself and your motorcycle to the limit. We encourage all riders to ride to their skill level. This is a community ride, we leave in in groups and do not leave folks behind.

Uncle Gus' Lodge & Marina at Lake Whitney, Texas

October 28th-30th

The venue will handle reservations for cabins and tent space. This year the operators of Uncle Gus' are charging $10 for tent camping. The reason behind this is twofold; they have liability concerns with knowing who is on property and the funds generated will be used for portable toilets during the weekend. Yeah, we know!!

Attendees should plan in advance to ride with someone who has a GPS or some other navigational aid since this is not a rally focused on playing follow the leader around the countryside. If you prefer maps then you're in luck as those will be provided as well. Riders are encouraged to create small groups because small groups are more readily adaptable to the problems typically encountered on these types of rides. This is not Mommy's Hardly Daverdson Rally and you will be responsible for your own navigation and expected to manage your own risks. Don't ride over your head and come prepared to handle minor maintenance issues on your bike.

Dirty Raid

This track is designed for the little bikes. It's typically shorter and with as little pavement as possible. The goal of the Dirty Raid is to hit the nastiest roads in the area and long detours will be taken to avoid pavement and see the country side. It was all scouted on an 1150gsa (when it was dry) so technically it's doable on a big bike but not necessarily fun. Some roads may be impassable on a big bike this year with all the rain we've been getting. It's hard to say.

Rally Raid

This track is designed for the big bikes and is famous for featuring more miles than a sane group can cover in one day. On this route riders will, inevitably, get a few challenges that will test their big bike skills. Between abandoned bridges, sandy roads, and beautiful scenery riders will encounter the twistiest pavement the area has to offer. Boring gravel will be bypassed for twisty pavement.

Paved Raid

This track is provided as a courtesy to all of our street bike riding attendees. It will endeavor to show riders beautiful scenery and the twistiest paved roads in the area.

Iron Butt????

If Iron Butt riding is your thang we should have a little something for you too. We are discussing a prize for the attendee who logs the most verifiable miles between the riders meetings finale Saturday morning and an, as of yet, undetermined time Saturday night.

Routes

GPS tracks will be available before the rally and will be posted on this page, they are currently being created, be patient.

Most likely you will be able to find a group at the rally with a leader that has the GPS but you should plan on having it available so you can find your own way. There are many GPS capable apps on iOS and Android, for Android we recommend OsmAnd.
