I got a mug from a friend and it is from the 10th National BMWMOA rally. Does anyone know where this rally site was. It is obviously in Ohio but my friend can't remember where it was.

Thanks Paul. My friend has a touch of memory loss so this info may hopefully trigger a thread.

Shreve had a lovely campground. My first national. Still got my mug too. It was glass in those days...

Shreve was nice- I camped along the access road between registration and the main rally site, so almost everybody went past my spot. Bikes arrived 24 hours each day, all through the night hours. Of course, they were all airheads back then- a very peaceful sound to fall asleep to!
A guy and his wife/girlfriend camped nearby had hung their damp laundry all over their /5 to dry- I thought it was funny, and took out my camera for a picture. They both rushed to throw their laundry off onto the ground, so I could get a 'proper' shot of the bike!

The shortest distance between two points.............
ain't how I got here......
I worked the Canton Cycle from Connecticut (great guys) the dealer vendor for the rally and all I remember is how tall the corn was and the wonderful Ale they had iced down, seemed it was a bottomless cooler. Great Rally!
