GO BIG 2025, AKA Trials for the BIG Cup

The GS GIANTS invite you to join us for our Annual GO BIG Rally.

We’re going back to our roots and offering something new.  In a nod to the first events we’re heading to Tellico Plains, Tennessee as a lead into the BMW MOA National Rally in Lebanon.

We plan on hosting the greatest pre-party ever which if you attended the Snake River Ramble, or any of the early events you’ll agree is a tall order.  In our favor we have a fantastic site in the Tellico Overland Adventure Destination, which is home of March Moto Madness.  We’ll have a track set up by Dennis Godwin and judged to the standards of Rusell Kruse.  Beer garden with local craft brew, great food from a local caterer.

Our annual meeting and dinner will be on Tuesday night, this is included in your rally fee.

Since the start, the GS GIANTS have had a close relationship with the riders of the GS Trophy.   Much of this has to do with the tracks volunteers like Dennis built and the Spirit of the GS, which is in the riding DNA of every GS GIANT.   The skills and the teamwork of a GS GIANT, on the trail or at a rally has been part of every successful US Team.

The Trials for the BIG CUP is chance for riders to get a short sample of the GS TROPHY, including Q and A time with riders who have won a spot on the team and gone on to travel representing the United States in the GS TROPHY.

On Sunday June 15 there will be open practice on the track with guidance from prior Trophy riders and recognized coaches.  On Monday we will have a qualifying round on the challenge course.  The qualifiers will be used for selecting teams for the Trials for the GIANT CUP which will take place on Tuesday.  Depending on participation the qualifying round may start on Sunday.  There is no extra charge to participate in the Trials for the GIANT CUP.  We will have our slow races and other fun field games.

We’re happy to announce that camping from Sunday to Wednesday with dinner Tuesday night is only $150.00.  We’re also pleased to offer great food my Michael’s Catering and Restaurant for Breakfast Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and Dinner Sunday and Monday for $80 by pre-registration.

There is no additional charge if you bring your bike in a truck, in a trailer or in a home on wheels.  There are some spots with electricity only which are limited to smaller trailers and class c coaches.  They are by reservation only.

Gates open for early arrivals on Saturday, June 14, by pre-registration.  Key volunteers and the site owner appreciate your holding your horses.  We love our volunteers and will be having pot luck on Saturday evening.  If you’d like to pitch in on making GO BIG, BIG please let us know.
