This year's GOTG will be a time to remember. Remember all those that we have stood for, wars we have fought, and the freedom we enjoy. At the same time, we want to make this a Gathering you will not soon forget. It will be a weekend to reflect, a weekend to enjoy, and most definitely "A Weekend to Remember!"
Utah is proud to be hosting the 2009 Gathering Of The Guard. We have selected Ogden for the mild summer climate, excellent mountain views, and some of the best motorcycle riding routes in the country.
Don't come to Ogden expecting a typical mountain town. This is the place Al Capone said was too wild for his taste in the 1920s. And while we've replaced bootlegging, prostitution and gambling with skiing, climbing, and some of the most scenic motorcycle riding in the country, Ogden's soul will always be a bit rowdy. If you want homogenized, we're probably not for you. But if you're rolling around the western United States with an appetite for life, welcome to one of the liveliest places you've never been.
During GOTG 2009 we are going to block off Historic 25th Street to everything but motorcycles and pedestrians and have a street party with some great local bands, a beer garden, and a great gathering of many friends we have yet to meet. We also plan on having some big name entertainment available as well.
Whether you have been to Gatherings in the past, or you have yet to attend one, this is one you won't want to miss! Patriot Guard Riders, welcome to "A Weekend to Remember." Welcome to Utah!
