On Sunday, April 6th, the community came together in an overwhelming show of support for Jason Dumke, a beloved friend and fellow rider who was recently injured in a motorcycle accident during Bike Week. Held at the iconic Cabbage Patch—famous not only for its coleslaw wrestling but also for being a true place of heart and helping—the benefit drew a massive crowd of friends, family, and motorcycle enthusiasts. One solid group of friends—Bill Latham, Jen McGuire, Tim Tarquinio, and Matt Pearce—spearheaded the event, pouring their time and energy into making it a day to remember. With incredible live music from Joey Speroni and raffle items that were truly out of this world, the day was packed with generosity, unity, and love.

The energy at the Cabbage Patch was electric as people from near and far came to support an amazing human being. Jason has touched so many lives with his kindness, humor, and generous spirit, and Sunday’s turnout was proof of the impact he’s had on the community. The funds raised will go a long way in helping his recovery, but even more powerful was the outpouring of support and encouragement that filled the air. It was a reminder that no one rides alone—and that in times of hardship, the biker community always shows up strong, especially at places like the Patch where the spirit of brotherhood and giving runs deep.
