I don't see the Wisconsin rally info on MGNOC but you can find it here:
http://www.wmgr.org/ (http://www.wmgr.org/)
The 42nd Annual Wisconsin Moto Guzzi Riders Rally will be held on July 31 to August 2, 2026 at the Legion Park in the Village of Wonewoc. All brands are welcome. Registration is $tba before July 1, 2026 and $tba at the gate. We will feature Wisconsin's best grilled brats & burgers Friday evening, Philly steak sandwiches Saturday evening and deluxe continental breakfasts on Saturday and Sunday mornings. As always, Wisconsin's finest refreshments will flow from the artesian taps. The rally fee also includes tent camping Friday and Saturday. Wonewoc is located in the heart of Wisconsin's "driftless" region - the area not flattened by the glacier. It is spectacularly scenic riding territory. Tune in here for late breaking developments.

Franks grand daughter must be a bit slow, it should be in newsletter.

If you haven't been, it's a nice rally to go to. Nice town and area to get lost in on a Moto Guzzi. :thumb:
-
I don’t think you can register yet as they are still trying to work out and finalize pricing.

Wisc is not a MGNOC club.

Since when? How did that happen?

They chose to do their own thing. I forgot why. Good campfire discussion with the Wisc higherarcy.
-
They have always been separate being their own club. The one elected as boss has been the Wi State Rep for MGNOC, that started with Mainard I believe. I was a member in WI club for a few years in late 80's.
-
We have a state rep and our meeting schedule appears in the magazine.The only thing I ever heard was that the club was reluctant to host a National rally.
-
We have two of us coming up from Houston but haven’t seen the registration open yet…

From what I know through connections I can't reveal here, the WMGR are being closely watched by the FBI.
They are one of the most notorious "motorcycle clubs", alleged to be deeply involved in highly lucrative illicit cross boarder cheese trafficking! If you do have the misfortune to run into one of these characters, do not attempt to confront them, they are known to carry large quantities of highly potent Limburger at all times.
I know this personally, as I lost a dear friend to their evil ways, they actually cut 100% Limburger with, it pains me to say out loud, CheeseWhizz. You can imagine the human toll...

Bad Chad is probably telling the truth. For more information on the historical Wisconsin cheese mafia, see Thomas Pynchon's latest book, Shadow Ticket. Really disturbing and surprising, if incomprehensible.

What's not all that far away is the SPAM Museum in Austin Minnesota (168 miles).
We spent a day prior to the rally wandering around Austin. This is "Hormel Town". Lots of history.
Even toured the old Hormel homestead.
Tell 'em that you're a Veteran and they give you a free can of SPAM.

The 1st one I went to I had to see the House on the Rock, that was when it was at Eagle Cave long time ago.

Pynchon included a female Guzzi rider,1930s European cars,wood power boats ,Captain Nemo submarine,Wonewoc WI spiritualist camp,tough guy dialogue from the 20s,Chicago and Milwaukee neighborhoods and suburbs,Hungarian culture and politics,etc.I was hoping Moto could explain it all to me.

Fittingly, Hormel now runs a top-flight cancer research institute there. It's pronounced Hor'mel instead of Hormel'. (The change to Hormel' for the meat company was made to avoid sounding German, when that became undesirable.)
I suggested (to my physician) a snappy marketing slogan for the institute:
Cancer! Hormel' giveth and Hor'mel taketh away.
No word back on the suggestion yet.

The house on the rock has changed considerably since then. It's organized, and the stuff works. Worth a trip. :smiley:

My bmw riding buddy had a relative who worked for Hormel.When he visited Chuck he stashed cans of Spam throughout the house,Chuck’s wife is still finding them years later.

Now that is a cool and pleasant joke!

No wonder my Wisconsin cheese is so expensive!

You know you want to.
