  • Vintage Yamaha Rally - USA 2024 - 23rd Annual - Stecoah, North Carolina

    Here is your 2024 Vintage Yamaha Rally Invitation. Time to start planning.
    We hope to see you in September at the Iron Horse Motorcycle Lodge.




    September 26 - 30, 2024

    As usual, the rally will be held at the Iron Horse Motorcycle Lodge in Stecoah, North Carolina.

    NOTE: There is a thought of a location change for 2025.
    If you have not experienced the riding of Western North Carolina & Tennessee please plan to attend the 2024 Rally in Stecoah.
    The VYR Organizing Committee will discuss the future of the event and determine if our affiliation with the Iron Horse will continue in to 2025

    Keep this place in mind. There's tent camping, RV sites and cabins on site along with a very up to date shower house, laundry room with leather drying cabinets, a pavilion, tire changing stand, bench vice, air compressor and even beer available right on site. The couple who own it are great folks, it's one of my favorite places to stay.

      Yep, Smitty's is certainly a very good place to stay when riding these fantastic TN, NC, SC, GA mountain roads.

      Problem for our SE Rally is Smitty's is way too small a venue to accommodate our 50-60+ Rally riders that come to ride these roads.
      RV & Tent would be covered but sadly Smitty's is about 30+ short on Cabin beds. Smitty's is a favorite of mine too.

        Guess I didn't realize it was that large a crowd. When I was at Smitty's last November he had just added another four cabins and there's always been plenty of room for camping. Somehow I see a motel in their future!

          Your XS11 ready to ride for 2024? Hopefully we can have another good showing of XS11's at this years 2024 SE Rally.
          I recall the most ever was 26 XS1100's which was quite amazing to see & hear.

          Many of the 2023 Rally attendees booked their cabins when they checked out last September.
          But if you didn't or are interested in attending the Rally be sure to make a room reservation.

            Iron Horse has NEW contact information:

            Their NEW phone # is (336) 496-0622

            Their NEW email address is: information@ironhorsenc.com

            Their website is still: www.ironhorsenc.com


            So if you have existing reservations or need to contact Iron Horse to make reservations use the new. FYI, their old number and email no longer work. Their I-H website still has the old info so hopefully they will update their website soon.

            We have updated www.vintageyamaharally.com with the new info.
            Rally runs Thursday September 26th to Monday September 30th so you can join the day Rides as your schedule allows.
