AUSTIN, Texas – The Republic of Texas Motorcycle Rally is celebrating its 25th anniversary with a four-day rally this weekend but there will be changes from years past.
The ROT Rally will be taking place at Circuit of the Americas and not at the Travis County Expo Center because the expo center is being used as a COVID-19 vaccination site.
The rally started on June 10 and runs through June 13.
