While looking on google to find out what "the BIKE DROP" was I found this wonderful website,
http://www.childrenoffallenriders.com/
and thought it might be helpful with all the info that can be found there, about the benefit.

Also found this site about "the BIKE DROP",

I don't know if I can make it, but it sure looks like something well worth the trip and I'm going to try.

Thanks, I tried to upload the flyer picture with the info last night but it wouldn't upload. If anyone can provide some guidance on how to load the picture I will get it up here.

Here is the link to the Facebook Event:

There will be lots of great raffle prizes, but a BIG ONE was donated by our host (McHenry Harley) is one week stay at the Daytona Seabreeze Resort during Biketoberfest! There will be autographed guitars, UFC stuff, dinners, all kinds of stuff and Billboard's #1 Blues Artist (Anthony Gomes) will be performing again.

Here is a recently shot interview with a family that was assisted last year by Children of Fallen Riders. Renee is now volunteering a lot of her time to help the organization with this year's ride. She wants to pay it forward to those who also need our help.
