The Metro East Bikers for Babies is Ready to Roll!

About 500 motorcycle enthusiasts are expected to take to the streets for the 10th Annual Metro East Bikers for Babies on July 28th, 2012.   Riders ranging from novice to veteran will enjoy a scenic cruise along the Great River Road, from Alton to Grafton, Illinois.  Ultimately, all participating bikers share one goal: helping babies. 

Radio personality Bo Matthews from 92.3 WIL will serve as emcee.   Registration gets underway at 9am and the ride begins at noon. The event is expected to raise about $30,000 for March of Dimes and features food and drink vendors, live music, raffles before and after the ride.

More information about the ride, including how to register and route is available at www.bikersforbabiesmetroeast.org

Nationwide, more than 35,000 people will participate in March of Dimes Bikers for Babies rides across the country.
