Maybe I started to consider Fargo as the 4th region
Fargo is actually its own country!

Dunno about Fargo, but at one time North Dakota held the world’s third largest nuclear Arsenal, so there’s that…

I give up. I've been in all of the menus and event calendars on the website and skimmed this forum and I can not find a registration link. I've been told multiple times to register before 9/1 for the best deal, especially if you were at this year's rally. Can someone post a link, please?
Good observation. So, just for the sake of the argument, what kinds of activities would be some combination of fun or educational to celebrate the 50th Anniversary? I expect that there are people working on this already, but maybe folks on the forum can come up with some good ideas?
I heard the HD will be there with its adventure bike. [emoji16]If we let them know now, maybe BMW could schedule us in and show up this time!! If they're not too busy[emoji1787]

That is likely to cause BMW to attend.
……….To have an intensive day-long seminar on the proper usages of anything that may resemble the BMW logo.
If there is time, brochures will be distributed.

Honestly, BMW’s Corporate Identity guidelines are extremely easy to follow… there is a professionally-designed PDF book available. But they are highly prescriptive. Essentially, you can only use their BMW name (wordmark) and Roundel in the approved design. We (and the BMW RA) are allowed to use the wordmark outside of the approved design, which if one understands key concepts of brand value, is a real bonus for us.

They aren't close, but that's the problem...few people, except those who know what BMW motorcycles are and any possible club affiliation, have a glue as to what the logo references. On the other hand I imagine one glance at the Mall of America logo and you'll know what it is referencing. I'd assume more people have been to Mall of America, than to a MOA meeting.
I hope you didn't miss my point-
I wish the logo made so much sense that the general public wouldn't have to ask- "what does that represent".
You mean like this?
I would like to see a big roundel, the universal BMW symbol, with BMW Motorcycle Owners of America clearly displayed.
THIS is a MOA:
That is never going to happen.
Interesting off-topic side-story…. That whole Mall was designed with AutoCAD software, made by Autodesk… a client of mine from the mid-80s to mid-90s. My agency, working with my computer animation studio, used AutoCAD, Autodesk 3D Studio and Pixar Renderman to create this killer fly-through animation of the place. We had a blast, especially with the LegoLand part! Unfortunately, it was prior to HD video, and I have a copy of it on U-matic ¾” videotape, but for the time it was the talk of the industry.
It was a part of a video we produced, we shot it in January. Good LORD it gets cold up there.
We are working on a 50th Anniversary logo for next year. I’m researching tattoo artists (I’ve found a German guy down in Destin, FL) that we might be able to film me getting it tattooed on my arm as the reveal…
