Some shots from the Alaska State HOG Rally this past weekend... 

 

By Thursday evening, this place was covered with bikers of all kinds.Many were Alaskan residents but quite a few came in from out-of-state to experience the first-ever Alaska state rally!

The deep purring sound of Harley engines formed a constant backdrop during the three day event.

Diamond M Ranch Resort family member, D.Anne Martin, considers whether or not to spend her college fund on a nice bike, instead...  Speaking of motorcycles, I was told that this particular bike was one of the winners of the 500 mile runs! 

...So, okay.  Maybe it wasn't the quietest event we've ever hosted...but at our weekly staff meeting this morning, the entire Diamond M Ranch Resort staff all agreed that we had a wonderful time working with the event coordinators and members of the Alaska State HOG Rally and hope to have the privilege of doing it again next year.  Thanks for a great time, everyone!

The Alaska HOG Rally is Coming to the Diamond M Ranch Resort!

Motorcyclists in Alaska are a special group.  Not able to ride for much of the snow-covered winter, as soon as the white stuff thaws, everybody with a bike gets on their bike.  One of my children's greatest joys is to be the first to spot a motorcycle zooming down the highway.  We have our fair share of tough looking leather-clad  motorcyclists, but the cool thing about Alaska is that they'll always be sure to give your kids a big smile and a friendly wave, when parked next to you at a stoplight.   

The Diamond M Ranch Resort is happy to be hosting this year's state HOG Rally, June 10-12, 2010.  We are bursting at the seams during the days of the Rally, and looking forward to helping our guests have a wonderful time!
