About 10 HOG Rogaland members and their bikes made the journey to Vinstra for this year’s ‘Super Rally’.  There were just over 5500 bikes from all of Europe that came to the party.  I think this qualifies as Norway’s largest rally ever.  The event had numerous vendors selling everything from Popcorn to Boss Hoss bikes to a ride on a mechanical bull!  The weather was mostly sunny but a bit chilly at night (at least from my American Point of view)  The entertainment and music venues offered everything from Biker Blues to heavy metal to male/female strippers.  Bikes on-hand ranged from Flatheads, Pans, Shovels, Evos, and Twin Cams.  The Chapter saw lots of old friends from Lyndall, England and also made some new ones.  The event was truly a success and we look forward to next year’s event held in Holland!
