Post event writeup for 2024 Rally
To Rogers Pond Park, Water St. Kennebunk, ME
The morning gathering portion of the event consists of show and tell presentations and the chance to interact one-on-one with the owners. Test rides may be had at the discretion of the owners.
Newbies and old hands alike will have the opportunity to experience the diversity of human powered vehicles. This is the perfect chance to interact with owners, ask them questions about their ride and check out the machines first hand. A wide variety of machines have been at past events; everything from fully enclosed velomobiles to load carrying machines to electric assisted cycles.
There are no restrictions on the types of human powered vehicles that may participate in the rally – except that they must have at least partially human powered drive mechanisms and must be roadworthy to participate in the on-road ride.
