Mad Bastard Rally set for June

From cmgonline

The countdown is on for the 2011 Mad Bastard Scooter Rally. Scheduled for the weekend of June 24–26, this year’s rally will see over 100 normally sane riders go for title of Maddest Bastard and their chance to win a brand new KYMCO scooter.

The long awaited details of the 2011 Mad Bastard Scooter Rally — presented by CMG Online in partnership with KYMCO Canada — have finally been released on the newly designed MBS Rally web site www.madbastardrally.com.

This year’s rally will send riders through the beautiful cottage country of the Muskokas for a 24-hour, 800+km long loop of loopiness starting and finishing at the Holiday Inn Hotel and Conference Centre in Barrie, ON.

Rider registration opens on March 1 but this process will be staggered to give the smaller scooters a head start to ensure as many as possible enter. Registration is limited to 100 riders on a first come first served basis.

KYMCO Canada is the official premium sponsor of the event, offering up the grand prize of a People S 125 to the maddest of the Mad Bastards.

After raising over $16,000 for the Kids Help Phone at the 2009 rally, the rally has decided to keep its partnership with this nationwide organization that has been helping Canadian children for over 20 years. Participants of the rally will be asked to collect pledges prior to the rally date with all proceeds going to the Kids Help Phone. For more info on KHP please visit www.kidshelpphone.ca.
