First Annual Widow's Sons Ride-In, August 21st.
We will be sponsoring an all-bike ride-in, a show and shine, if you will. No judging or prizes, just show up on your bike, park where everybody can get a look at it while you enjoy the beer garden and bar-be-cue. We'll be holding a raffle, and the proceeds will go to the "Downed Rider Fund", which is our adopted charity. We're hoping to have vendors on site,and we're trying to get some dealers to bring in a few new bikes, for those who are thinking of a change. I've invited the Antique M/C Club of America to come and put some "old iron" on display. Come out for a good time, I'll be adding to this post as we work out the details.

Toy Run to Shriner's Hospital December 5th, 2009 We went, it is estimated that there were more than 7000 bikes in attendance. It was cold, there was ice on the roads, but it was sunny and a good day to do good work.
The Shriner's Hospital /Portland ABATE Chapter's Toy Run, is held at noon on the first Saturday of December. We gather at the Tri-Met bus barn in the morning and ride with a year's worth of financial and toy collections to the hospital whether it be rain, snow or shine. Our year long efforts make it possible to buy custom made wheelchairs, other specialized equipment and toys for the children at the Shriner's Hospital.

We went, had a good ride and good time. Todd came down from B.C. with his lovely wife Barbara and a van load of vintage parts. We will have this on our schedule again next year.
