FEDERAL JUDGE CANCELS TRADEMARKS………..
Daytona Bike Week Trademarks Cancelled by Federal Judge: Stating that the trademarks should never have been granted in the first place after being open for decades, a Federal Judge simply threw them out as being too generic to copyright by an outside entity, and saying that at best, only that community could possibly copyright them. She further decided that they had been obtained from the Federal Trademark and Patent office fraudulently and noted that the so-called owners of the trademarks could not enforce them in any way, nor stop anyone from making merchandise for sale at Daytona Bike week. We […]

Good news! Since day 1 the Sturgis Rally has been by bikers, for bikers. Not by the city government, for bikers. The tradition began when local Indian Motorcycle dealer Pappy Hoel invited a few friends to town for a good time. The Sturgis Motorcycle Rally has been promoted and organized by local small businesses and organizations for 80 years since. That tradition can continue today thanks to recent court rulings that put the power of the rally back into the hands of the people who are most passionate about its existence, bikers. On November 2, 2018, the appellate court ruled that Sturgis Motorcycle Rally Inc. (SMRI), in fact, did not own or have valid trademark rights to “Sturgis,” […]
