The Illegitimati Rider of Year - 2012

Those of you who believe that if it doesn’t happen on the West Coast, it just doesn’t happen can hit the delete button right now and move on.

But for the other 99.99% of the universe, The Illegitimati announce The Rider of the Year award. This award recognizes the rider who participates and performs well in specific 24-hour (or slightly longer), motorcycle endurance rallies. This award will be comparing apples to apples. No adding of extras for multi-day events, no quibbling about whose rally is more worthy than another, just a group of rallymasters that have given much thought and discussion as to how we can recognize the truly exceptional riders that participate in our events.

The concept is simple: ride one-day rallies, finish, earn points. The better you finish, the more points; the more rallies you start, the more points you can earn. No points are awarded for someone who registers, but does not start the event. If you DNF, you still get points (not many, but at least a recognition that you entered and started the event).

At the end of our rally season the rider with the most points is named The Illegitimati Rider Of The Year - 2012 and will receive a really cheesy certificate, recognition by his or her fellow riders and, thanks to Mike Kneebone and the Iron Butt Rally, a Pass-The-Draw Entry to the 2013 Iron Butt Rally.

How does a rider go about having his name entered into consideration for the award? Simple. Every rider who enters the following rallies will be automatically considered in contention for the award. Here are the participating rallies and dates:

Cape Fear 1000 Rally - April 20-22, 2012 http://www.capefear1000.com
Mason Dixon 20-20 Rally - May 25-27, 2012 http://www.masondixon20-20.org
The Minuteman 1000 Rally - June 8-10, 2012 http://www.minuteman1000.com
The Minnesota 1000 Rally - June 15-17, 2012 http://www.teamstrange.com
The Void Rally - October 5-7, 2012 http://www.rallythevoid.org

More information will be forthcoming as the 2012 Rally Season gets closer, but for now mark these rally dates on your calendars and start thinking about the rides in 2012.
