Fun for the Entire Family

Street Vibrations® Spring Rally is free to the public.  Motorcycle participants pay a fee.

“We surpassed last year’s registration number in early May,” said Randy Burke, president and CEO of Roadshows, producer of Street Vibrations® Spring Rally.  “There’s a lot of pent up demand this year.  We thought the winter would NEVER end!”

Performing bands throughout the weekend include: Audioboxx, the Jason King Band, Easy Rider Band, the Jelly Bread Band, Nevada Hazzurd and Sparks teenager Kensey who will keep everyone entertained with karaoke during band changes.

Aerial Stunt Shows & Jumps

Jaw-dropping stunt shows featuring LivFast team members who jump motorcycles 50 feet through the air 30 feet off the ground ramp-to-ramp and land on what appears to be a postage stamp are just part of the entertainment planned throughout the three day event.

LivFast will perform throughout the day Saturday, June 4th starting with practices at 1:30 p.m.  Full blown shows are scheduled at 3 p.m. 5 p.m. and 6:30 p.m.

Examine Rolling Rembrandts

Ride in Shows allow participants to showcase their bikes and give motorcycle enthusiasts a chance to check out the artwork, the chrome and customization on some of the finest bikes you’ll find in the West.

A Patriotic Event

“This year we’re having a very patriotic ceremonial flag raising by members of the 2/360th Field Artillery, Training Support Battalion based out of the Sharpe Army Depot in San Joaquin, CA,” Burke said.  “We have a lot of veterans who participate in our events and it gives us an opportunity to thank them for their service to our country.”

Special Event Locations

Most event activity will start, end or take place entirely on Victorian Square in Sparks but the Rally has expanded to include some additional locations.

Legends of the West Bike & Car Fest in downtown Carson City June 3-5 is a first year event complementing Street Vibrations® Spring Rally. The special event closes the main street in Carson City for bikes and cars to be on display in a Ride-in-Show and Show & Shine, Treasure Hunts, a Cruise Parade, live entertainment, vendors and more.

Chester’s Reno Harley-Davidson is an official Street Vibrations® Spring Rally Vendor and the Market Street dealership will be hopping throughout the weekend with live entertainment and great deals.

LivFast and Reno Motorsports present The Dealer Challenge “Race for the Cup” at the MXTrack 9 miles west of Reno at the Patrick Exit, #28. There is a $5 gate fee.  Gates open at 6 a.m. for practice. Races start at 9 a.m. Entries are $35 for the first entry $26 for the second. Pro Races start at 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. The Dealer Cup Trophy winner will be announced at the jump site stage on Victorian Square Sun., June 5 at 6:30 p.m.

Specialized Events for Motorcycle Participants

While Vendor Village will provide non-stop entertainment with bands and groups on various stages throughout Victorian Square in Sparks, registered motorcycle participants will take part in “poker runs” showcasing scenic rides the Reno-Virginia City Carson Valley has to offer. At each poker run stop, participants draw a card and try to compile the best poker hand to claim prizes.

For their $40 registration fee, participants get an event T-shirt, a ride pin, they participate in poker runs and ride in shows, enjoy special parking and VIP parties with entertainment.

Free Concert Saturday Night

Saturday night from 7:30 to 9 p.m. in Victorian Square enjoy tribute band Skynnyn Lynnrd.
