We are excited to announce that for 2019, our annual ride has again been selected by the AMA to be one of the events in the AMA National Dual Sport & Adventure Series! This prestigious series is known for their first-rate events all over the country, and it is an honor to be invited to be part of their 2019 schedule.
CHOOSE YOUR ROUTE
Both routes will run Saturday and Sunday, so choose the one that's best for you!Dual Sport Route:
Adventure Route:
The Tower Run Adventure route is more mild tempered than the Dual Sport route, but dont let that fool you! We still get down and dirty, and this ride will test the limits of you and your bike! Following the provided GPS routes, our Adventure route will lead you through thousands of acres of our Perry Mountain Motorcycle Club property, neighboring Talladega National Forest and surrounding rural areas. Most of what we will be riding is dirt / gravel forest roads (some maintained, some not) with some paved road sections through the beautiful Central Alabama countryside.
Be prepared for everything from pavement, hard-packed forest roads, loose dirt, rocks, sand and possibly mud depending on the weather conditions. This Adventure Route allows for a fast and fun pace with lots of places to stop and check out the scenery.
The Adventure route is best suited for off-road friendly adventure bikes and large dual sports (KTM Adv bikes, Africa Twin, Vstrom, BMW GS, KLRs, XR 650, DR650, KTM 690, etc). 50/50 tires are HIGHLY recommended and a 50+ mile fuel range is necessary.
But dont think that this route is only for the big bikes! We also have lots of smaller bikes join us. (WR250R, DRZ400, KTM 350, etc). If your idea of dual sport riding is rough backroads and not gnarly singletrack, this is the ride for you! You won’t be the only one on a smaller bike, and you wont regret it!

Perry Mountain Motorcycle Club is located right in the heart of Alabama. Situated 20 miles west of I-65, we are southwest of Maplesville, right off Hwy 22 on CR 26.
When you enter our property, you drive under a sign reading 'Reynolds Pasture', the name of our parking and camping area, named after the land owners. Our clubhouse sits atop the hill overlooking the pasture, where we park and camp for our events. Running through the middle of Reynolds pasture is a cool flowing creek with a nice sandy bottom, which just so happens to be a great place to cool off in the summer months. Right alongside the creek, we have a large fenced in play area for kids to enjoy themselves, which includes everything from swingsets to a full jungle gym. A few years ago, a couple club members worked to build a beautiful bathroom and shower house, which is open to all visitors. Just beyond clubhouse hill, we have access to thousands of acres of diverse riding area. The terrain varies from rich black soil, to red clay, sand, rocks, and just the right mixture of hills, valleys, creeks and open pasture.
Camping and Lodging:
• Unlimited Parking for campers, RV's and Primitive Camping• We do not have any hookups, so feel free to bring generators.
