A Gypsy Rendezvous Overview...
The AHDRA Gypsy Rendezvous
Nationals is on its sixth year. If
you’re a biker enthusiast living in the Midwest, and have never attended,
you’ve been missing out on one of the fastest growing motorcycle events in the
region.
The event will be held April 17th
– 19th . It is an
annual Armed Forces fundraiser sponsored by three local Harley-Davidson
dealerships. The dealers include Gateway Harley-Davidson in St. Louis, MO;
Surdyke Harley-Davidson in Festus, MO; and Dale’s Harley-Davidson in Mount
Vernon, IL. The weekend is full of activities that include the "Gypsy
Rendezvous" memorial ride, entertainment, bike show judged by industry
professionals, the chance to win a new Harley-Davidson Street Bob, and drag
races put on by the All Harley Drag Racing Association (AHDRA). However,
the central focus of the event is to raise money for the U.S.O. of Missouri.
On Friday of the event, a
"Nitro" Kick Start Party begins with a party at all three dealerships to kick start the weekend.
On Saturday, the memorial ride leaves each individual dealership and will
rendezvous in Ellis Grove, IL.
From there, the riders make their way to Jefferson Barracks National
Veterans Cemetery for a memorial ceremony, then to Gateway Harley-Davidson for
the big post-ride party. Sunday’s
festivities are held at Gateway International Raceway in Madison, IL, just
across the river from downtown St. Louis. Experience
the ground shaking 230 mph nitro Harleys, AHDRA vendors, entertainment, bike show,
and swap meet.
The
entire Surdyke Family of Dealerships is a proud supporter of our U.S. military.
This entire event carries a very patriotic theme.
We welcome all motorcycle enthusiasts and “red, white, and blue
blooded” Americans throughout the Midwest to enjoy in the fun and the help in
raising money for the U.S.O. of Missouri. For
