Boots & Bikes for Big Brothers Big Sisters

Tony & T-Rex

Ok me and T-Rex are back, been a great three-month vacation. But the boss say’s get on your *farm tractor* and head out to Okeechobee to cover Big Brothers and Big Sisters’ charity event. It is a beautiful Saturday, on September 11th and we fire the bike up and take a 100-mile ride down to C. Scott Driver Park where the pavilion is lined with bikes already.
First up is the ROTC Color Guard from Okeechobee High School and our National Anthem is played by a young woman on a trumpet. After the anthem, Saddle Tramp kicked the tunes up, the beer tub was flowing, the food was on and the raffles were being sold. The event was great with a crowd in the 350 range, plus a 6-category bike show with first in each class receiving a Rough River Metal Work’s whiskey barrel trophy.

But that’s not all they have, CEO Stacey Watson-Mesley is raffling off a custom 2007 Night Train from now until Memorial Day 2022. There are 650 tickets at $100 a ticket plus 3 cash prizes and all the proceeds go to the Big Brothers and Big Sisters of St. Lucie, Indian River, & Okeechobee Counties. It was a great turn out for a great cause. And for the ride home you guessed it rain, but all for a good cause…
