On June 20th, 2010 Carlos will join some of the world’s most fearless riders for a 7,000+ mile run from Key West, FL to the Kenai Peninsula in Alaska. Across two countries they will ride and test their will as warriors in the Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge!
Many are called but few will be chosen. Only 1,000 chosen individuals – those who can hear 10,000 horses hooves thunder across the prairie as they ride into battle – will be counted among the most elite riders to ever straddle a steel horse.
In the same manner as the finest military organizations, the chosen few will receive a numbered challenge coin, minted with the Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge Logo. And, at the end, there lies a HALF MILLION DOLLARS in ALASKAN GOLD for whoever reaches the final checkpoint first. There is no prize in a warrior society for second place.
Every Harley-Davidson™ dealership in the world has been invited to participate so riders should prepare to be challenged not only by the Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge Organizers but by riders from around the globe!
Meaning – It’s a Good Day to Die – “HOKA HEY” was the roar of every warrior that rode into battle with Crazy Horse. Join us as we ride into battle. As we put ourselves on the line to find out just who we are.
Any one looking for way to renew their spirit and do good for those in need, definitely needs to be a part of this great event! Whether you make it to the first gas stop or all the way to Homer, AK; participants who are in Key West at the start of the Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge will be a part of something that is greater than any one of us.
We will only follow this particular route one time in history!
Does your heart pump the blood of the warrior grandfathers?
