Twice a year on the weekend before the Memorial Day weekend and the last full weekend of September a group of BMW riders (former BMW riders, and non-BMW riders) associated with the BMWST message board meet in Torrey, Utah. This is a mostly informal gathering for the purpose of riding, socializing, eating, and more riding.

In 2011 the dates are May 20-22nd and September 23-25th.

The central location for this gathering is The Chuckwagon which we take over completely.
