A little information about us:
If you remember magnetos, kick starts, master links and tightening bolts after a weekend of riding ... that's how it began. It started in the 70's with a group of friends who loved to ride. We have been riding together for a long time and have logged countless miles. Since then, we have moved on to tour bikes and longer rides (check out our photo section). We are old school bikers - riding to us is a different level of living life; a passion all it's own. Most don't understand it .. SOME NEVER WILL !
Where we are now:
Like most people, we have had to watch someone close, fight cancer. Over the past years we have joined forces with other friends, riders and family members to raise money for cancer research. Our largest effort being what we love to do .... MOTORCYCLE RIDES !! We have had good days, good times and raised money to help with the fight for a cure.
As NASTY as cancer is; it is a worse thing to face alone. Many families faced with this are also in tough economic times .... and then there are the children.
While there are many worthwhile charities, The Sunshine Kids organization help these kids live happier lives ! They hold, organize and sponsor many events, so these children (and their families) can have days to look forward to; days to be so involved with activities they can put their troubles aside for a while; make new friends and memories that can last forever.
Our Goal:
We want to share the feeling we have riding, with the kids. Have the wind in their face, the sun at their back, the thrill of riding and the roar of motorcycles around them. Taking them with us on our bikes; and in our hearts.
Our crew (riders, family and friends) have been dubbed 'The Sunshine Riders'. If you want to do more than donate money to a charity, RIDE WITH US IN SEPTEMBER. If you really enjoy riding .. this can take you to the next level.
During the rest of the year, we help with other trips/events for the kids and provide bus service for several events. If you would like to do more, just fill out our contact sheet.
