Motorcycle Events This Weekend

This is another busy weekend for the motorcycle riding community. Little Sturgis actually starts today and should be fun, then there is also "the Boogie" over in Indiana. Closer to home, the weekend kicks off with the Mr. St Louis Roll Biker Ball at Orlando Gardens. This will happen at the 8352 Watson Rd location call (314) 535-5250 for more info.
Saturday, the Alton LOH Chapter is holding their annual Night Poker Run; this is a good time and sign up is early evening at Ted's Motorcycle World in Alton, IL. There is a big bike show in Jacksonville, IL also on Saturday with builders and sharp bikes from all over competing. You should really check this out; it is a fun event and benefits the local rescue team in the area.

Sunday, is the Vietnam Vets MC Annual Poker Run with sign up at Doc's Harley Davidson in Kirkwood, MO. The club always puts on an excellent run and they deserve our support for what they do currently like supporting groups such as Hartbauer/McBride and other charities, as well as what they have done for all of us in the past. You will see me here. Also, another fine organization, the Statesmen MC, is holding a Bike show at the Desloge VFW to benefit the Ladies Auxiliary VFW. This too is a very worthy cause and this is another organization that does a lot for others, so please come out and show your support.

I have been told that a piece that one of my contributors was a major writer of and that was submitted to a local HOG Chapter's newsletter has been passed along to another publication without his consent. Once again displaying how hard it must be to compete with The Biking Life. I would suggest if they want stories about events perhaps they should send someone who can write as well as point a camera.
