In the spring each year the end of the Rim Ditch Passport event ends at Okeechobee. The Rim Ditch Ride is a multiple stop event that runs over a full calendar year. The stops are along the perimeter of Lake Okeechobee. At Bikefest Okeechobee they pull the winner from two different qualifiers: those who made all the stops and those who made half. The winners walk away with a nice cash prize. The passport is sponsored by Treasure Coast Harley-Davidson. The event was emceed by Marc Sandlin from Style Studio a local bike shop. During the weekend event they have vendors, music, bike games, a poker run, tattoo contests, car show, bike show and even chicken poop bingo! This is a very laid back event held this year at Cypress Hut Eagles 4509. There is a cover charge of $5 that benefits the Eagles. Unlike most bike festivals that require walking miles to visit lots of vendors, this event is all onsite at the Eagles and they had a great indoor bar with AC!!!! We bought our Passports for next year and hope to complete all the stops! A great weekend of riding awaits those who want to try a new riding adventure.
