I'm not sure how disruptive it is. Bearian (talk) 17:27, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The Pappy Hoel Ride is a non-notable event. The only point of these edits is to add spam links to fullthrottlesaloon.com. It violates Wikipedia's policy against advertising. Motorcycle rally has Wikilinks to events which have Wikipedia articles on them, but it is not a collection of links to every small event. See WP:NOTDIRECTORY, WP:NOTADVERTISING.

It would be fine to add brief mention of the Pappy Hoel Ride to Sturgis Motorcycle Rally and/or J.C. Hoel, as long as it cited a third party source, and not the event's promoter fullthrottlesaloon.com. But there is no third party coverage of the ride. Hence, it's non-notable. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 17:56, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
