I really liked the way it went this past year even thought Radam and I had to ride all the way to LA due to the meet up rider breaking down, and the confusion about the meet up in Dennison TX was a bit of a problem but still much worth it.
If we are planning a Locale meet up.. May I suggest Bikes Blues and BBQ in Fayetville AR next Sept. dates for next year are Sept 26 - 29. It is a pretty big rally and attended by many from Kansas, OK, AR, TX, MO, LA. It is a free rally with lots of demo rides (usually Harley, Victory, Yamaha, Suzuki and Can Am - Sypder), music (most free) lots of vendors and some good BBQ contest. they even added some moto-cross stuff this year.
I rode my 350F up and down Dickson street and got lots of positive comments. This is also an All Makes rally.
Any way.. I still liked the baton relay but I am willing to participate in something else this time.
