The happenings at the Iron Horse Saloon go from one extreme to the other, but these last 3 were at the top of the list!

The Ruff Ride, benefiting the furry friends at the Halifax Humane Society, was an escorted ride through the Loop and brought 285 participants to the Iron Horse during Bike Week…what an amazing turnout during a vast event already! Big Poppa’s BBQ dished out the riders tasty dinners along with the new Ruff Ride t-shirt. Raising an enormous amount of $5,000.00!! Their next Ruff Ride will be starting at the Halifax Humane Society on Oct 17th and ending at the Iron Horse during Biketoberfest. For more info you can go to halifaxhumanesociety.org or check the Thunder Roads calendar.

The 1st Bike Night at the Horse ROCKED them all!!! Ladies rode in for the open class bike show winning a PINK toolbox with all kinds of fun and flirty toys inside the box!! Jender played their heart out and we danced our tushes off in return!! The grill was fired up for the backyard cookout along with chances to win prizes if you brought your VIP card…if you don’t have one yet check into it. The outback was definitely in full swing for the first event and with the warm summer nights coming…it WILL simply become bigger and badder!! This new bike night will be featured on the 1st Saturday of every month with a different class of bike show each month.

The Vintage Bike Show and Spring Ride was not a very springy day but there were a few vintage bikes that showed up at J&P Cycles to register. It was a little chilly but J&P had the BEST hot coffee and donuts from Dunkin’ waiting for those that ventured out. J&P Cycles is striving to be more involved in events with the local biker community and has performed a remarkable task at doing just that!! You can always look in Thunder Roads for the upcoming happenings!!
