Everyone, I hope you don't mind me posting this here but if you could attend, that would be greatly appreciated as I wont be here when this takes place. I leave for Afghanistan the day of the ride and I would like my extended OGC family to represent me and have a good time with my friends. This will also be good advertisement for the OGC family/club as well as the tuner scene in Louisville/southern Indiana in general.

There is a donation, but there is also a chance to win a little bit of money and some awesome prizes. This ride will be police escorted from the front and back so no BS driving or going fast. This is a cruise with a few stops in between start and end destinations.

Here is a link for the reason for this event and why its so important to me. I have known this kid since he was 5 years old. It really breaks my heart to see this happen to someone who is as giving and helpful as he is and will remain to be. Any help you can give would be great!

Do we know how long this will last? I am already doin another charity thing that day(which is also my birthday), so it depends if I can make it or not. If I can, I will definately do it. Hope there is a huge turnout regardless!

 

Im not sure, I will find that out and let you know. Thanks and happy early birthday!

 

thx!

 

Ok, so the ride probably wont last that long. With all of the people showing up I think they are going to keep it short. I do believe that there will be media coverage of some sort too.

I believe it will only be around 50 or so miles, but your presence is better then nothing if you have other plans that this might interfere with.

Again, thanks for everyone's support.

 

Sounds great... as long as Chris' other charity thing that day works out... sounds like we should be able to make it...

 

bump for a good cause!

 

Some stuff has changed a little bit. Here is a picture of the ride poster and a little bit more about it.

Thanks again for those who think they can make this or just want to donate. So far his medical bills are over 850K and we dont know what insurance is going to do with them.

I really wish I could be there but Ill be on the way to Dubai at that time. Thanks again!
