By Uwe WachtendorfPosted on

Despite the trials and tribulations this year’s organizers were asked to endure, the 26th Annual Parry Sound Sportbike Rally will take place this weekend, July 4th to 6th, 2008.

Hosting the event is the Parry Sound Motorcycle Association and the community of Parry Sound, who are encouraging visitors to the rally to enjoy the landscape and scenery surrounding some of the best riding roads in Ontario.

The epicenter of the rally will be the Bobby Orr Community Center (BOCC), located in the downtown core of Parry Sound. A $20 registration fee gives participants a t-shirt, a bag of goodies and entry into all events and attractions.
