🇺🇸🔥 Happy Flag Day, everyone! 🔥🇺🇸
Nothing says “America” quite like good friends, loud engines, and a whole lot of red, white, and vroom.

Today we’re throwing a stars‑and‑stripes‑sized THANK YOU to Walters Brothers Harley‑Davidson and the legendary Stan Wiebler for FIVE fantastic years of partnership with Down For A Ride. Five years of support, horsepower, and pure two‑wheel patriotism—you’ve been with us through every mile, every memory, and every moment of organized chaos.

Stan, you’re basically the George Washington of this ride—minus the wig, plus a whole lot more horsepower.

Walters Brothers, you’ve kept us rolling strong, loud, and proud.
Five years in, and you still fly the flag higher than anyone.

Here’s to the freedom of the open road, the friendships that fuel it, and the partners who make it all possible.
Happy Flag Day—and thank you for riding with us, year after year. 🇺🇸💥

You all brought the hype, the heart, and the hospitality—turning this stop into an absolute highlight for Down For A Ride. The vibes were high, the support was unreal, and we felt every bit of it.

🎯 And let’s talk about that FIRST ANNUAL DART‑THROWING CONTEST!
Thanks to your sponsorship, one rider is now walking around with a seriously coveted trophy and bragging rights for days.

Couldn’t have asked for a louder, prouder, or more electric team to keep this ride rolling strong. Stag Tap, you crushed it. 💥

Starting our gratitude tour with a big THANK YOU to Jazmin, Mike, Wayne, and all the crew at Whitey's On 29.

Thank you for showing Down For A Ride such incredible hospitality. Extra love to the volunteers who helped pull off our “sidewalk‑free” chalk art contest—turns out chalkboards were the genius move of the day.

And one lucky winner walked away with Whitey's On 29 sponsored Tailgate and Tallboy VIP Tickets!!!

And thank you for hosting our registration chaos with smiles and patience. We appreciate you more than you know.
