Rockies2Pacific 2026, or as otherwise known as R2P, is the second year for this 3 day event. Last year in June the event was hosted by Inter-Mountain HOG and based out of High Desert Harley in Meridian Idaho.
The concept of the rally was to alternate years between the "Rockies" and the "Pacific" with different HOG chapter hosts each year.
Sharing different areas and regions so that motorcycle enthusiasts can enjoy new places, new roads, new friends and new adventures.
My chapter, North Cascade Harley Owners Group, NCHOG, was invited to submit a proposal to host the 2026 event back in January of 2025. We were awarded the honor of hosting the 2026 R2P in April of 2025 and we've been preparing for it ever since.
Thursday July 16th registration begins at 7:30. There's breakfast burritos on the house, pick up your swag bag and pre-ordered rally merchandise and enjoy everything that's going on at the dealership. Thursday afternoon there will be a welcome BBQ and music.
Then Friday morning, muffins and coffee on hand. Staging begins for the guided rides or perhaps you will choose to try some of the self-guided rides. All ride routes are posted on the website, rockies2pacific.com, and have Harley Ride Planner, GPX and Google map links along with ride descriptions and details.
Mid afternoon on Friday will start our Street Fair that will feature vendor booths, boot shine, tattoo artists, patch lady, crafts, food trucks, beer garden and DJ.
Silent auction, raffles, dealership poker walk, deals on clothing, parts, motorcycles and more to keep things fun and interesting.
Then Saturday morning, donuts, coffee and more rides. The day wraps up with the closing ceremony/banquet.
All is included in your registration cost.
Sunday morning the Black Sheep and the Christian Motorcycle Association folks will be at the host hotels to do bike blessings for those who wish before they head home.
I invite you to visit the website and click the links. All information is posted there and if you do have questions about anything, feel free to reach me.
