Cycle Source, Providence Cycle Worx and Flat Broke Chops & Rods Join The 2020 High Seas Rally Crew
Alright, you scallywags, it’s time for a massive dose of motorcycle misbehaving and general skullduggery on the 2020 High Seas Rally. Cycle Source Magazine, Providence Cycle Worx, and Flat Broke Chops & Rods will be boarding the ship and setting sail on the High Seas Rally from December 3 – 10, 2020.
Alright mates, what we have planned for this epic quest is unheard of in the lifetime of our crew. Coming up will be seven days of Grease & Gears Garage segments, where we will be showing the ins and outs of keeping your bike in shipshape condition and how to build your own chopper baubles. Let us translate that for the non-pirates in the crowd. Chris Callen of Flat Broke Chops & Rods and Xavier Muriel of Providence Cycle Worx will hold daily seminars for your viewing pleasure aboard the cruise to show you everything from fabrication to basic motorcycle maintenance.
There will be much more mischief coming with the Cycle Source mini bike racing. First, one to win gets a big prize from our own treasure chest while the last of you landlubbers gets a one-way trip to Davey Jones’ Locker. No, they do get a prize, but I’m not telling you what it might be. And not to worry, we will provide the mini bikes to race with, and the professional Christmas tree to start the races. All you have to do is sign up and show us your need for speed.
Sure, there may be many of you who wish your own trusty steed was aboard for the gold doubloons that will be awarded. Well, Cycle Source will have its famous bike show via virtuosity on board. Actually, Cap’n, it will be a virtual bike show. Cruise guests may sign up ahead of the cruise and submit a dozen photos of their bike. Cycle Source will print poster displays for each bike; they will be classed and awarded prizes in 25 classes on the ship. Not only that, the entire world will vote on the High Seas Rally Bike Of The Year through social media voting. There are tons of prizes – Class winners get $500, Best in Show gets $500 plus a free cabin for 2021!
Cruise guests will also have a chance to win the custom-built motorcycle by Providence Cycle Work that Xavier is building all through 2020. The giveaway benefits High Seas Rally’s Dialysis Program, which provides a once-in-a-lifetime chance to take a cruise at no expense. They provide the medical care, the transportation, the cruise and some spending money for the patient and his or her caregiver.
So, what is the High Seas Rally, you ask? Well, it’s the World’s Only Biker Rally on a Cruise Ship. 2020 marks the 21st sailing on a luxury cruise ship. Every guest is a motorcycle enthusiast, and with over 2,000 onboard, lifelong friendships are often made. There is world-class live entertainment at sea, including Foghat, Joe Diffie, Molly Hatchet, and so many more. Rallygoers will be treated to killer parties not only at sea but on land as well. Big money raffles and giveaways totaling some $200k in cash and prizes are an added bonus for passengers. Over the years, High Seas Rally has raised funds for many great causes to date totaling $3M raised for charity. This year’s rally is December 3-10, 2020, onboard Royal Caribbean’s Brilliance of the Seas with ports of call and exciting adventures awaiting passengers in Cozumel, Costa Maya, and Grand Cayman.
Well, for sure, it sounds like there will be plenty of souls to be counted for the locker. It be good to have fresh crew members to choose from! Actually, it’s our job to make sure the guests are having fun, and as for the locker, let’s keep it closed for this trip, shall we!
You can stay up to date with the progress on the custom motorcycle raffle bike project by following @providencecycleworx or @highseasrally on Instagram. Passengers are automatically entered to win this one of a kind motorcycle but don’t worry if you aren’t lucky enough to score a spot on this epic adventure, you will still have a chance to win it!
