49er Rally - BMW Club of Northern California
The BMW Club of Northern California puts on a fine rally every Memorial weekend. The first BMW event we ever attended; we consider it our "home" rally and it remains one of our favorites. We'll be there, as usual. How about you? May 27-31, 2010. This year back to the Mariposa County Fairgrounds, so don't show up expecting it in Auburn! The club links to our site here, and the link works, but if you hold your cursor over it, it'll identify BMW of San Francisco. Weird.
