2010 MOCal Targets

By Don Poremski

The MOCal program as sponsored by the BMW Motorcycle Owners of Cleveland will continue in the new year with new targets. Train Stations will be an additional way of accruing MOCal points in 2010. Three points will be awarded for each no matter in which state or country they are. Metro stations are not considered train stations. Send a photo of your Beemer near the station or yourself in motorrad fashion for proof of the visit!

The other ways of gathering points can be found by scrolling down this page. Proof of attaining each target is a photo of your and your bike, or if riding alone, just your bike. Two persons traveling together on two bikes need not submit individual photos of themselves, but you should indicate who the missing person in the photo is, but make sure both bikes are shown.

As we enter the 2010 MOCal season, get in touch with me if you have any questions. My cell is 330-704-1680 and my address is This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .

What is a MOCal?: It’s a reflective decal with the MOC logo that you can attach to your bike or helmet. What does it do? Besides offering a degree of conspicuity at night, each MOCal (combines MOC with decal) represents 10 points gained through club participation and/or activities.

What do I get for collecting MOCals?: The top points earner every year gets a check for $125 and possession of a traveling trophy. Second place gets $75 and a trophy and third place gets $50 and a trophy. The next seven top points-gatherers get a small trophy to commemorate that year’s effort.
The club member gets one entry in the DOER award for every ten points. That award is a $100 gift certificate from one of our local dealers. The winner is drawn at our annual holiday party at which the winner must be present.

How do I earn MOCal points?

Participation in the 2010 BMW MOC Grand Tour, club events, rides, and other club defined activities as described in the below chart and reporting them to the MOCal score keeper will accumulate points for you.
