Ugh. Such beautiful weather lately, but heavy rain heading our way.

Bikers for Boobies was about to turn 5 on Saturday, October 7. But that is also the time of a little tropical storm zooming up north bringing heavy rain.

On to 2024! What is Bikers for Boobies?

Started by a new Maine motorcycle club, the Vacationland V-Twin Cruisers, Bikers for Boobies is a fundraiser to help Mainers fight breast cancer. Five years ago, they wanted to help Maine, and they had an idea to organize a run to help Mainers fighting breast cancer. Well, that ties in pretty perfectly with the annual Cans for a Cure that has been raising money for Mainers for over two decades. We worked together to organize a 90+ mile bike run all to benefit Cans for a Cure. That money will go directly to the Maine Cancer Foundation. It's one of my absolute favorite days of the year.

If you have a motorcycle or would like to be a passenger, I cannot encourage you enough to come play with us. It starts up at LA Harley-Davidson and ends at the only place it could end: Bentley's. Change the date to 2024 and MAYBE we try to pull this off in September!

The route is always gorgeous, as the leaves are turning in earnest. Again...not happening, but it is such a pretty ride - when it's NOT raining.

It's the camaraderie that I love the most, though. The people you meet are a family, and when you join, you are instantly family, too!

That's Medusa. She's the nicest badass you'll ever meet. Bikers for Boobies raises a ton of money (nearly $6,000), but it's a day for fun and laughing!

Grab a T-shirt (only $10!) so you will always remember how much fun you had! To celebrate five years, we went pink this year! Thanks to Victor Rios and Expose Design for always making the shirts and for way less than he should. Ahhhh, yes. I have a ton of cool t-shirts...

CANCELED! When was the best motorcycle run ever going to be?

Saturday, October 7. KSU (kick stands up) at 11 a.m., and registration starts at 9 a.m. This is when you see people that maybe you haven't seen since the last run. This is a great time to catch up. Also, Dunkin' provides all the coffee, hot chocolate, muffins, and donuts! Plus (while supplies last), grab a $5 gift card to Dunkin'! I promise you, it will be a memory you dip into when you are feeling blue to make you feel better.
