NEW YORK – The 10th annual Long Reach Long Riders charity motorcycle ride, dubbed
“Ten Great Years and Five Great Lakes” by the ride organizers, is scheduled to begin on June 28, 2013 in the Great Lakes region of the US. Over the eight-day trip the riders will have an opportunity to visit, and stick their toes into, all five of the Great Lakes as well as ride some of the best bike roads in the area.
Scott Henkels, 2013 Ride Marshal noted, “It was time to bring the ride back east. The area around the Great Lakes offers great scenery, terrific roads and the weather in late June is usually perfect for a ride. Holding the 10th anniversary ride here also puts the ride in a great geographic location, easily accessible to more riders from the US and Canada.”
Greg Williams, 2012 Ride Marshal along with his wife Alice Neff, also commented, “The 2012 ride raised over $51,000 for the charities and with the opportunity to add more riders we are hoping to raise even more in 2013.”
In 2004 the Long Reach Long Riders began riding for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS and The ESTA Foundations’ Behind the Scenes program. Since that first ride this group of entertainment industry professionals has raised more than $350,000.00. Over the years the Long Reach Long Riders have traversed the United States three times, visited the canyons and deserts of fthe Southwest and the coastal highways of the Pacific Northwest, and have ridden through New England and along the scenic highways of the Southeast.
