Touring Bikers look for reasons to ride, and biker events are a good reason. Many events are organized for good causes, raising money for those in need. Poker runs, Toy runs,and Rolling Thunder are just a few of the many events that are assembled for good causes. Bikers have a way of uniting to benefit those less fortunate. Other biker events might be adventures in team building. Whether it's just a motorcycle club riding together, or co-workers bonding; the team building aspect of riding is a real benefit. Biker events, such as Bike Weeks are just good, clean fun. New Motorcycle Gear - Save up to 40% today!

Most important, was the bad image associated with Bikers and how to overcome that image. People stereotyped Bikers. In January of 1987 the first meeting of Wetzel Motorcycle Club was held. As the year progressed it was agreed that we would have a party in September of 1987 and use the proceeds to financially help out people who could not get help from other sources.
