Jack Daniels

Jack Daniel's will once again bring a "Taste of Tennessee" to the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally this year as official sponsor of the 2010 Sturgis Motorcycle Rally and presenting sponsor of the annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally Mayor's Ride. We invite motorcycle enthusiasts and visitors to come out and tour the nation's oldest registered distillery from outside the Jack Daniel's Hollow.

The Jack Daniel's Experience, a mobile museum, is bringing a little of the much-loved distillery from Lynchburg to Sturgis. You'll learn who Mr. Jack Daniel was and how he ended up with the best selling whiskey in the world. You'll see (and smell) whiskey dripping slowly through charcoal and the new oak barrels used in maturing Tennessee's finest whiskey. "This year at the Jack Daniel's Experience, we'll have a few of our good friends from Lynchburg, Tennessee, here to share some of Jack's best stories," said Dave Stang, Jack Daniel's sponsorship director. "Once you tour the Experience and spend some time with the folks from Jack, it'll make you want to plan a ride through the hills of Tennessee to see how and where we've made Jack Daniel's since 1866."

The Experience is open to all folks, 21 years old and up, for tours free of charge throughout the rally. There will be a licensed Jack Daniel's merchandise vendor on-site with Jack apparel, bike items, and other unique pieces. Games and giveaways will also be part of the entertainment at various times throughout the Rally. Stop by to get your boots shined and see the Jack Daniel's 100th anniversary heritage soft tail Harley-Davidson. As always, those over the age of 21 years old will be able to purchase a refreshing Jack Daniel's Country Cocktail from the bar, run by our friends at the local grocery mart.

"Ever since Jack Daniel's Tennessee Whiskey was founded, it has stood for authenticity, Americana and freedom. And that's exactly why Jack Daniel's is proud to be part of the annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally," said Stang.

Officially registered by the U.S. Government in 1866, the Jack Daniel Distillery, Lem Motlow proprietor, is the oldest registered distillery in the United States and is on the National Register of Historic Places. Located in Lynchburg, Tenn. (pop. 361), the Jack Daniel Distillery is the maker of the world-famous Jack Daniel Old No. 7 Tennessee Whiskey, Gentleman Jack Rare Tennessee Whiskey, and Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Tennessee Whiskey.

Bottles and Throttles Don't Mix. Your friends at Jack Daniel's remind you to drink responsibly.

SD Pork Council

Pork. The Other White Meat® is proud to be the official meat of the 2010 Sturgis Motorcycle Rally. We hope that you enjoy the pork products featured throughout the Rally and that you take home some great recipe ideas. Be sure to visit TheOtherWhiteMeat.com for more lip-smacking recipe ideas.

The South Dakota Pork Producers Council was established in 1954, when pork farmers realized the value of promoting their product. The famous tagline, Pork. The Other White Meat®, is the fifth most recognizable tagline in American advertising, and is a result of the Pork Checkoff's promotional efforts.

Our mission is to responsibly serve, support and enhance the success of the South Dakota pork production industry by managing industry issues to successful conclusions, improving the image of the industry and insuring a safe, wholesome and quality product through a unified & engaged membership.

United States pork farmers care. They breathe the same air and drink the same water as you, so they are committed to ensuring their practices protect public health, contribute to a better quality of life in their communities and safeguard natural resources. They also promise to protect and promote animal well-being, produce safe food, and provide a safe work environment.

South Dakota pork farmers make a difference in our community. South Dakota pork farmers will bring 2.3 million hogs to market this year. The pork industry has an economic impact in South Dakota of $368 million and accounts for over 6,900 jobs for farm families, processors and supporting services in the state.

Pork is a very nutritious and versatile protein. Pork is 46% leaner than 50 years ago. In fact, through efforts in feeding and management practices by pork farmers, six of the most common cuts of pork are leaner than a chicken thigh. The pork tenderloin is just as lean as a skinless chicken breast. You can find hundreds of delicious, easy-to-prepare pork recipes, like southwestern grilled pork tenderloin, at TheOtherWhiteMeat.com. Healthy, lean and packed full of nutrients, we encourage you to make pork the meat of choice.

Please contact your state organization or call us at: 800-830-PORK.

DaBus

One day back in the summer of 2000 an idea was born by a Sturgis gent named Steve Barry. The idea was to provide a shuttle service during the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally so that people would not have to fight traffic, worry about finding a place to park and most importantly, stay off the road after they had a few drinks. It was then that "DA BUS" was born.

From its humble beginnings over half a dozen years ago with just 2 buses, to almost a dozen buses last year, "DA BUS" has become a very integral component of the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally. Campgrounds around Sturgis find this shuttle service to be a great benefit to their businesses with "DA BUS" transporting virtually thousands of guests in ever growing numbers from their campsite to a favorite concert venue, downtown bar, racing event or just to and from famous Sturgis Main Street! "DA BUS" delivers passengers - safely - to their destination.

"DA BUS", an Official Sturgis Motorcycle Rally Sponsor, is pleased to continue its partnership with the City of Sturgis and local Law Enforcement to provide safe, efficient, accessible and economical transportation services to our Sturgis Motorcycle Rally guests. For more information on "DA BUS", or for advance single trip, daily or weekly wristband purchases on-line, go to www.sturgisbus.com. Have a safe Rally and remember - DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE! RIDE "DA BUS"!

Tom's T's Tom's T's

The Olympics have "it". Daytona and Laconia rallies have "it". The Boston Marathon has gone to court to protect "it". "It" is the "Official Logo" of an event - the registered mark that represents the official hosting agency. The logo is granted to products approved by the official licensing agent, and money received is used for purposes determined by the owner group.

The "Official Logo" for the Sturgis Rally was originally designed and developed by Tom Monahan as a vehicle to help fund the Black Hills Motorcycle Classic. Tom gave the logo to the Sturgis Chamber in 1986. As owner of Tom's T's, Tom volunteered in 1986 to give $2.00 to the Sturgis Chamber for each t-shirt sold that was imprinted with the licensed and registered Black Hills Motor Classic logo.

This led to the current licensing procedure in which a portion of the money from a customer's purchase of a licensed product is returned in royalties to support the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally and improve the Sturgis community. This year, Tom's T's continues as a member of the prestigious ranks of "Official Sturgis Motorcycle Rally Sponsors" as the exclusive t-shirt of the 2010 Sturgis Motorcycle Rally. Stop by our store at 1117 Main Street when you're passing through and let Tom personally welcome you to Sturgis or order on-line at www.tomsts.com!

An exciting addition to this year's Official World Championship of Custom Bike Building is the Ace Cafe London. The legendary Ace Cafe London is an iconic gathering spot for millions of English motorcyclists and will be in operation at the entrance to the Championship Hall.

Originally opened as a 24 hour road side cafe in 1938, the Ace Cafe quickly began to draw motorcyclists. The height of the Ace's popularity came in the 1950's and 60's with the "Rockers" who established the Ace Cafe as a cultural center for rock n' roll and motorcycles in England. The Ace Cafe was also the birthplace of many motorcycle clubs and the legend of "record racing", where riders would race one another by dropping a coin in the jukebox and race to a certain point and back before the end of the song.

The cafe was closed in 1969 and re-opened in 1997 by Mark Wilsmore. Now the Ace Cafe is once again the center of motorcycling for a new generation of enthusiasts. Hosting bike gatherings, hot rod and car clubs, rock n' roll bands.

"We are very excited, thrilled and honored with the opportunity, to not only be present at the world renowned and legendary Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, but also to be able to play our part at the prestigious World Championship of Custom Bike Building", says Mark Wilsmore, Managing Director.

The Ace Cafe www.ace-cafe-lomdon.com will be open serving fine food and beverages the entire week of the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally.
