Walt Gray Ride: Sunday, August 22nd, 2010

Thanks to all...it was a blast!!!!
We had 3000 riders in 2009 and cleared $63,000 for our charities this year! Our seven year total is $320,000 donated to kids charities. We're so grateful for all of you who've given of your time to come ride with us. Special thanks to Hard Rock Cafe' and Johnsonville Brats for donating the food... Norcal Beverage for all the beer and Coca-Cola for the soda and water. Please enjoy the photos of the 2009 ride!

Join us Saturday, August 21 at the original home of the Walt Gray Ride! Harley Davidson of Sacramento will host us from 4-7 pm for registration, brats, beverages, live band and first chance to buy ride merchandise.

It'll be our first run completely along the Delta! We leave Raley Field in West Sacramento on Sunday, August 22nd at 10 am and follow the South River Road all the way to Isleton. We'll take over the historic downtown and make it a street party arriving at 11 am. Isleton is a favorite stop for many of us on a weekend cruise. We're going to try to make this thing as big as their old crawdad festival! ALL BIKES WELCOME!

"Leather Souls"
One of my local favorites and a friend to all us on two wheels. The "Leather Souls", based in Drytown, have a great mix of blues and rock. Allen Frank is the lead guy and he's played all over as a member of the "Firebirds" back in the day. I've spent many nights sitting on that famous couch on the front porch of the Drytown Club watching Hwy 49 while listening to the "Leather Souls".


In our first year (2003) we had 1,200 riders. One local HOG Chapter President said "there were more riders here than the first Laughlin River Run in '82!"
In 2007, 2008 and 2009 we had 3,000 riders again and in seven years we've done this, we've given $320,000 to children's charities. Thanks to all of you who've been with us on this journey.
