Top O' The Rockies Rally
July 23-26
Paonia, Colorado
The 54th annual Top O’ The Rockies Rally is the go-to event of the summer. The entire event takes place within the beautifully maintained historic Paonia Town Park, where it has been held for the past 37 years. The BMW Motorcycle Club of Colorado is a welcoming club that encourages riders of all makes and models to take part in this quiet, small town event.
The BMW Motorcycle Club of Colorado is a 501C charitable organization. The Top O' The Rockies Rally is one of our two annual events that raises much of the money used for our charitable donations. At the closing ceremonies of the 2025 Top O’ The Rockies Rally, the BMWMCC used proceeds from the rally to make charitable donations to the Paonia Lions Memorial Scholarship, the Paonia Volunteer Fire Department, the Town of Paonia Youth Center and a town fundraiser for a family in need and an additional donation to the Motorcycle Relief Project (that is equal to the money raised by MRP at the rally).
This fun and festive annual event will be held in Paonia, Colorado on July 23rd-26th in Town Park with plentiful camping in the shade provided by the many large old trees of the park. You will find rally vendors, food trucks and activities on the Rally site. Evenings are comfortably cool and the beer garden in the park is the perfect place to gather and meet up with friends new and old while enjoying Town Park and live entertainment.
The riding is plentiful and diverse including national parks and monuments. From The top of Grand Mesa (the largest flattop mountain in the world) at an elevation of 11,000 feet and home to over 300 lakes to the deep Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park, the desert landscapes of the Colorado National Monument and twisty and scenic Colorado highway 92 through the Curecanti National Recreation Area. There are the historic towns of Marble, Aspen, Crested Butte nearby to explore. Lodging other than camping can be found nearby. The Paonia area has small town amenities, grocery store, alternative lodging, etc. In downtown Paonia, a short walk from the rally site, attendees will find a number of restaurants, boutique shops, bakeries, coffee shops and a brewery.
Past rallies have seen riders come from 37 states and 6 Canadian Provinces as well as Mexico.
