Austin Chronicle

Sponsor from the very first year!

Triumph NA

We are stoked to add Triumph North America as a Platinum Sponsor of the rally!

Alamo Drafthouse

We asked The Alamo Drafthouse to bring it, and they brought it in STYLE. Watching a movie on their 100ft inflatable screen and killer soundsystem, while laying on a blanket surrounded by 100s of other gearheads is something you won’t forget. last year, we played The Sound of Music…..KIDDING! We only play badass, hard to find moto-gems, and we have hit a few homers (as well as a few grounders) over the years. Stay tuned for a special screening this year.

Fred & Maggie Beck

About 11 years ago, Fred and Maggie tragically lost their son Charlie after an 18 month battle with a Meduloblastoma brain tumor. Time goes on, but Charlie’s memory remains strong, so for 2012, Fred and Maggie decided that they wanted to donate a motorcycle to the Harvest Classic in Charlie’s memory.  So Please join us in extending a heartfelt thanks to the Becks for donating a restored 1966 Suzuki X6 Hustler to be auctioned off at the 2012 rally. Make some room on your credit card, because you will want to bid on this sweet bike.

D & H Roofing

D&H Roofing’s Doug Hector has been a longtime sponsor of the Harvest Classic Rally, and for 2012, he wanted to do something special. Doug looked in his extensive collection, and picked out 2 small motorcycles that he is going to donate to be auctioned off. Stay tuned for more details on these hot little numbers, and ……Thanks Doug!

Killeen Power Sports

Killeen Power Sports has been a strong rally supporter for years, often playing a ‘behind the scenes’ role in supporting the rally. For 2012, Killeen Power Sports is building up a sick Suzuki GS550 cafe racer, which they are donating to be auctioned off. This bike will feature a lot of hand fabrication and will really turn heads wherever it goes. Bring money, because you will want to bid on this bike!

Lone Star BMW/Triumph

Big thanks to our longtime sponsors over at Lone Star BMW/ Triumph. Each year, they hit us up with cash and raffle swag to support the Candlelighters. Lone Star is run by good people, and if you don’t believe us, just stop by some Saturday for coffee and tire-kicking. You”ll make new friends and probably walk out with some trick goodies from their well-stocked accessories department.

Opal Divine’s

Every year, our friends over at Opal Divine’s donate over 600 lbs of choice brisket and sausage for us to cook for the Saturday night barbecue dinner. That’s a lot of meat! Proprietors Mike and Susan are some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet and totally get what the rally is about. Next time you are in Austin, stop by one of their 3 locations and say hi!

Mike Pawlowski

Hall of Famer!

Mike has attended every single Harvest Classic Rally. After the first rally, he approached us and said that he noticed that we didn’t have any Platinum Sponsors yet. He said that he wanted to throw down a challenge to others by signing up as our first Platinum Sponsor. Mike has been a Platinum Sponsor ever since. You might think that Mike is wealthy, with money to burn, but this isn’t the case. Mike is a working man with a heart made of gold that is bigger than the size of Texas. He just wants to make a difference in the lives of kids who are living with cancer. As the rally has matured, we have added lots of sponsors, and currently enjoy strong support from a loyal base of sponsors who totally get what the rally is about. But we will always remember Mike as the guy who led the charge. Thanks Mike for all that you do to support the Harvest Classic Rally!

Randy Voet

Hall of Famer!

Randy Voet is an amazing man and great friend of the Harvest Classic Rally. For the last 3 years, he has worked with his friends, family, and employer to build and customize a motorcycle to be auctioned off……..and for 2012 he is doing it again. Stay tuned for more details on the vintage Suzuki 750 that Randy & his talented friends are putting together.
