For the last nine years, the Hawgs 4 HOPE motorcycle ride has been bringing riders together to raise money and support for families with children battling cancer in the Middle Georgia area. This escorted motorcycle ride and dice run through Bibb and Monroe counties benefits the Jay’s HOPE Foundation, a local nonprofit whose mission is to provide direct support services to pediatric oncology families.

The ride begins at the Harley Davidson of Macon and takes riders through scenic parts of Bibb and Monroe counties before ending at the Rescue Mission of Middle Georgia just off Zebulon Road. Riders are greeted with a barbecue lunch provided by Fresh Air, music, door prizes, and a raffle. The event takes place Saturday, October 5th. Registration opens at 9:30 am with kickstands up at 11:30am. For more information visit jayshope.org or call 478-238-6360.
