We love our sponsors, who donate cash, auction and raffle goods, advertising, food, activities, and much, much more. Rally sponsors subsidize the cost of the rally, and allow us to donate generously to the Candlelighters Childhood Cancer Program of Any Baby Can. Rally Sponsors, we SALUTE you!

These folks are the best! From bringing ALL the coolest swag, to throwing down and helping us run the Silent Auction at the drop of a hat, to pitching in and helping us pack up on Sunday… WOW, we love you guys!
Corrales Creative Carving
Over the many years, Russ has been a rock, and taught us how to bend like the willow sticks he carves – Thanks so much for all the support and clever-fart-ness through the years Russ!
Kentex Metals
Behind every company sponsorshop, there is a passionate individual. Owner Eric Spille and his family have been volunteering at the rally for the last decade, and they truly embody the spirit of the rally. Thanks Eric!
Alamo Drafthouse
Have we mentioned how much we love the Alamo Drafthouse lately? These guys bring it in STYLE. Watching a movie on their 100ft inflatable screen and killer soundsystem, while laying on a blanket surrounded by 100s of other motorheads 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. A motorcycle drive-in…what? Stay tuned for a special screening this year!
Fred & Maggie Beck
Over 13 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. The Harvest Classic is 100% dedicated to supporting those families who are battling cancer, and honoring those who have lost the battle. These young people are heroes, and they will never be forgotten. Fred and Maggie are wonderful people, and one of the ways that they honor Charlie’s memory is by supporting the Harvest Classic.
In 2015, they donated an amazing Triumph Bonneville vintage roadracer, which raised $13,000 for the Candlelighters! For 2016, Fred is working with Dr. J to restore a beautiful Rickman Montessa to donate to the rally. In 2019, Fred and Maggie have donated an amazing custom roadracer. Read more about it in the Live Auction tab of the Events section!
Thanks Fred and Maggie, for your on-going support of the Harvest Classic. Look forward to seeing you both in Luckenbach in October!
Central Texas Auction Services
Jaime Elkins and his crew are heroes! In 2015, they came out to a wet, rainy rally, and showed so much heart and soul. They warmed up everybody in the room, and helped to raise a record amount of money in the auction for the Candlelighters. Thanks Guys!
Central Texas Trials Association
Long-time supporters of the Rally with a huge impact financially AND on the character of the event. Who doesn’t love to see these masters of balance at play?
Ducati Austin/ CTX Motoworks
From year 1, Ducati Austin/ CTX Motoworks has been a strong supporter of the Harvest Classic Rally. We love you guys!
Opal Divine’s
Over the year, our friends over at Opal Divine’s donate over 10,000 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 and say hi!
Mike Pawlowski
Hall of Famer!
Mike has attended every single Harvest Classic Rally. After the first rally, Mike 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! 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 man who led the charge. Thanks Mike, for all that you do to support the Harvest Classic Rally!
Pecan Grove Store
Rick and Becke are awesome! They have sponsored the rally for many years as Clone Cubicles, but have now started a new adventure by renovating a cool old service station/ grocery store on Hwy 16, and turned it into a beautiful venue with a stage and an outdoor dance floor. Please check out the Pecan Grove Store for weddings, private parties, etc.
Their son Matt is a childhood cancer survivor, so the cause really resonates with them in a personal way. From the very first year, they have been in our corner. Thanks Rick and Becke!
Revival Cycles
Alan Stulberg and the boys over at Revival Cycles are well known for making unique, beautiful, and functional motorcycles. Based in Austin, they have a great team and an amazing shop. Check them out!
Sign Effects
Beth and her ace crew over at Sign Effects have donated all of the beautiful signs that you have ever seen at the rally. They work overtime and after hours to make these signs, and we really, really appreciated these guys, who truly REPRAZENT the spirit of the rally!
Dan Brown
Dan Brown is one of our rally crew who always has a big bear hug and is happy to throw down and get any task done. Dan and his gal Kathy are 2 of our barbecue chefs who work all night to smoke up the tastiest, moistest brisket that we all love so much. We love you guys!
Blue Moon Glassworks
Jim and Rose have gone above and beyond for the Rally EVERY YEAR, creating the amazing custom trophies to reward our bike show winners. Thanks so much y’all for being part of our family!
Whittington & Co.
Richard Whittington is responsible for the Harvest Classic design ethos. The clean, spare design of our rally flyers, packets, and t-shirts is simple and timeless, like so many of the bikes at the rally. He does an amazing amount of behind-the-scenes work for the rally, and is a wonderful person to boot. Thanks Richard!
