Lone Star Rally, 2007

Our map team was literally blown away by the 2007 Lone Star Rally held on Galveston Island, Texas. It is (in fact) the largest motorcycle rally on the planet; larger than Sturgis, larger than Daytona Bike Week. In its 7th year, the event attracted over 400,000 bikers over a 4-day period. The 2007 Rally happened November 1-4. The photo above shows The Strand area of Galveston with bikes of all description lining the street. If you ever have a chance to attend this fabulous event, we totally recommend it, even if you don't have a motorcycle as it's very entertaining and loads of fun. A brief video
