Tattoos, Tricks, and Teddy Bears...This weekend is our biggest yet!

I've been hyping up this weekend for the past 5 months. I can't believe it's finally here! As promised, this will in fact be our biggest weekend of the year. I have no doubt in my mind.

Saturday, September 18th 9am-5pm
FALL OPEN HOUSE
...And one like you've never seen before. The Flat Out Freestyle stunt team is back for the 3rd year in a row to show off their tricks, flips, and fashionable twists off the huge ramps that have made them famous.

We are hosting a highly requested live used bike auction beginning at 12pm with one of our local auctioneers doing the calling.

We'll have Jessica Haney from MyMuseum back and ready to create some art on your body as she does on the spot tattoos on a first come, first serve basis. If you're not from this area, you may not know what a big deal this is. Jessica is not only one of the most talented artists in a tri-state area (we may be biased), but she also has about a year waiting list that you will be jumping if you come to this event.

Electric Mud, one of the most followed bands in our area, will be bringing their musical talents to our parking lot for your listening entertainment throughout the day.

Mahlon Troyer, our coveted pinstriper will be making an appearance and taking appointments to decorate your much loved motorcycles.

Keeping you in Stitches will stake out in our Motorclothes department ready to sew your new patches on for FREE.

And to top it all off...we will have a Kids Tent in case you want to bring the family!

Oh, and of course there will be food and ice cream. When have you ever known us to have an event without food and ice cream?!

Sunday, September 19th 8am-12pm
15th ANNUAL TEDDY BEAR RUN TO AKRON CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL
I know what you're thinking. 15 years!? That must be an awesome ride. You're right...it is. This is our largest group ride with over 1,000 bikes almost every single year. You'll come to the dealership between 8-11am to register. Registration is $5 and a new teddy bear or $15. We will line up the bikes according to entry time. Everyone will hang out, shop, and enjoy the dealership for a few hours while we wait for everyone to arrive.

At 11am, there will be a small presentation for the chosen "caravan kid" that is or was a patient of Akron Children's Hospital. We'll give out door prizes and announce the winner of the CUSTOMIZED MOTORCYCLE that has been raffled for the past few months. We'll then give the explanation of the route and everyone will leave at 12pm sharp for a police escorted ride to Akron Children's Hospital!

I hope you don't have plans for this weekend because we've made the plans for you! See you all on Saturday and Sunday as you help this weekend in September will go down in history as Adventure Harley-Davidson's biggest weekend ever!

Ride Safe. :) Nicki
