Governor Rick Perry and Texas Custom Choppers Lead the 13th Annual ROT Rally Parade

This past weekend Texas Custom Choppers participated in the 13th annual Republic of Texas (ROT) Rally. It is the largest motorcycle rally in the state of Texas with approximately 40,000 attendees. Motorcycle enthusiasts come to enjoy the amazing motorcycles, the Austin nightlife and of course the beautiful Texas women. This event challenges some of the best, yet undiscovered, custom motorcycle builders who unveil their custom motorcycles, many for the first time ever, at the Republic Of Texas Rally.

Over 200,000 people packed the downtown streets of Austin during the Friday Night of the ROT Rally to party biker style. Events included top name bands, a bike show, custom bike builders, ride in bike show, Rhett Rotten Wall of Death, XFC Cage Fights, dealers, distributors, tattoo contest, contests for the ladies, stunt riders, 350 vendors, the ROT parade and more.

The ROT Rally starts with an escorted parade leaving the rally site at 7:30pm on Friday Night and riding through the streets of downtown Austin for a 10-mile route. This year Texas Governor Rick Perry and some of his friends from Texas Custom Choppers led the parade into downtown Austin, TX.
