Thanks to everyone once again. The TdP 2026 was a success. I will meet with the event coordinators and emergency services once the debrief meeting is scheduled and let everyone know the details. We will definitely look at the options to figure out the last rider dilemma. That’s been one of the harder things to determine over the last couple of years. I like the rest stop “hand off” idea, as well as having 2 chasers from the start of the rally. Other agencies have done it in the past, but I don’t think they were there this year. I will put it on the list to confirm in planning for 2027.
If you have any pictures, please send them to me or Phillip, or post them here. Let me know any comments you may have. The TdP recap will be a discussion topic at this Saturday’s RRVARC Monthly Meeting. (July 25, 2026 @ 10am @ Paris PD Courtroom).
The Chamber of Commerce expressed their gratitude for all of our volunteers. This event would not be as smooth without your help. Thank you to the members of the RRVARC, Fannin ARC, & Choctaw ARC. I look forward to working with you again.
