The Rally provides plenty of opportunity to get together and socialize with your friends and to meet new ones. The Rally opens with a swap meet and get-acquainted party.
Participants are free to bring spare parts, bicycles or other items they wish to sell.
Simply stake out a portion of one of the tables set up in the Rally headquarters and display your wares. The Rally provides snacks and punch as participants roam the aisles looking for bargains and finding old friends. Participants sip wine and snack on cheese and crackers while they stroll among the bicycles on display for the Concourse D'Elegance and vote on their favorites. There are usually a speaker or movie available during the evening as well. The Rally provides the hot coals and participants bring their own fixings for a picnic dinner.
