The Smoke Out Rally has a long and storied history of being one of the best old school chopper parties in the country. Spanning two decades, the rally has seen generations of chopper jockeys pass through its gates, help foster the careers of many of the big names that came out of the time period but most importantly provided a a place to celebrate the culture and community around choppers.Iconic images of the people who made this rally what it has become helped us realize the old way to move forward with it was to take a few steps back. We are pleased to announce that for 2022 the Smoke Out Rally is returning home to the Rowan Country Fairgrounds in Salisbury NC.
Technically the event starts on Firiday morning, Sept 9, 2022. But..here’s the deal. Campers can come in on Thursday afternoon. Thursday night will be chill with a fire and B-Rate Biker Movies on the big screen. Nothin More..
On Sunday, Sept 11, 2022 we will have a tribute to 9-11 but come noontime you don’t have to go home but you can’t stay here.
Ummm. No, while Smoke Out is first and foremost a chopper party, everyone is welcome. We love everything on two wheels, hell even three wheels will pass here, if that’s what ya dig. Not gonna lie though..Choppers will have preferred parking.
As you would expect, there will be one main custom bike show, with some thirty classes and tons of prizes from great sponsors. Additionally, we are working on a few specialty shows that may include a Performance Bike Show, A Sportster Only Show and possibly and XS650 Show. So Stay Tuned!
Ahhh yeah…of course! Smoke Out wouldn’t be Smoke Out without mini bike races! Jive Turkey Racing will be leading that charge so bring your costume and wheels and getting ready to race. More info coming soon!
We’re gonna fill your ears all weekend with some killer tunes that promises to cross most genres. So stay tuned for the Line Up
