Who We 'R'

R History

Chapter 'R' signed a Charter with GWRRA on September 30, 1989 with 38 charter members. Our chapter serves the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. We are part of the Texas District and the South Central Region (H). We are known as the 'Rally Cats'. Today we are over 260 members strong and growing.

Known as the D*FW Rally Cats, we really live up to our name. We participate in as many rallies as we can each year, locally, regionally and nationally. We truly enjoy the competitive rivalries with other chapters at these rallies. We compete in bike shows, newsletter, scrapbook, banner and mascot competitions, T-shirt, dress, best dressed couple, comedy, and couple of the year and Web Page competition. We also participate in the off-bike and on-bike games and the Top Gunn competitions. In fact, at the Top Gunn competition at Wing Ding XX, Chapter R brought home 3 first place trophies and one of them a first ever, perfect score. At Wing Ding XXI, Chapter R brought home 2 more for Top Gunn and 3 for on bike games and 3 for the bike show.

We are very involved in the Riders Education Safety Program with over 40 Level 4's that are currently active with Chapter R. Chapter R Educators were nominated as Chapter Educator of the year for 1996, 1997, 2005, and 2006. In 2000, we were awarded the Riders Ed "Best Chapter" award at the District Staff Meeting. Chapter R maintains CPR/First Aid training annually to keep us up to par on our preparedness. We also schedule ERC courses throughout the year.

We are very civic oriented. We have had 14 GWRRA Toys Runs for the underprivileged children in the DFW Metroplex area. Over the past 6 years we have provided Christmas for 1000+ children.
We host an annual Chapter Rally in Keller, Texas. 'R' 10th Annual rally promises to be the best yet in 2007.

We hope to see you on a ride with us some day and welcome all.
