Iron Horse is world famous for many reasons: t-shirts, Craiger’s Beef Tips, the Wall of Death, David Alan Coe, and other great music acts. David Alan Coe hasn’t been able to perform the past few rallies due to health issues, and people do miss that, but this year’s line-up was top notch. Whey Jennings, Cowboy Kid Rock, Sawyer Brown, Eddie Montgomery, JB and the Cheap Whiskey Band, Joe Nichols were some of the many bands that filled the air with their music. All the headliners signed guitars to be auctioned for St. Jude and brought in nearly $10,000 for the kids. Yuengling sponsored the tattoo contest with Willie and Roadside Marty running the show. Gorilla Pro, a new participant of Bike Week, sponsored a burnout contest that caused tires to pop, engines to blow and a young man with a prosthetic leg to go home with extra cash, a new tire, and a big smile on his face! In June, the St. Jude’s ride coverage will be in the magazine. Find more photos of the burnout, guitar auctions and the tattoo contest on Thunder Roads Florida Facebook.
