"The Hill Country Motorcycle Rally is sponsored by Optimist Club of Fredericksburg Texas - The Optimist Club of Fredericksburg was established in 1983 with the intent of “bringing out the best in kids.” Proceeds from the Hill Country Run Motorcycle Rally help fund the many community youth programs of the Fredericksburg Optimists. When you live to ride, you inherently live for the road. One of the best feelings in the world is the wind in your face and the freedom to rumble on motorcycles wherever you ride. The Hill Country Run Motorcycle Rally in Luckenbach is May 6-8, 2022. Billed as "More than just a plain ol’ motorcycle rally," the Rally is three days filled with hearty food, live music, new friends and miles of riding through vistas. It is a small-town event that is getting big. And even if you don’t ride come hang in with us." Click here to register. Tell them ChopCult sent ya!

New Giveaway from Kayla Koeune

I reached out to some of my artist friends to see if they'd like to create art for CC's Lets Bring Back The Fun movement. For those unaware of this movement, it's achieved through you sharing your photographs and memories of happier times with your family and friends. It's a way to take back social media and get you to step away from the news for a bit. For the artists involved, it's a way for them to keep their artistic juices flowing, create the piece of art, sell the art, and make some money in the process. When I presented this opportunity to my dear friend Kayla Koeune, she jumped at the chance. But if you know Kayla, you know she always has another plan up her sleeve ( I think that's why I love her so). Kayla created a coloring book page for the kiddos and adults to use through her #ArtForGood project and would like to gift a fellow artists some goodies from her studio. All ages welcomed to enter. Happy coloring! - Lisa

S&S Cycle Donates Engines and training to Local High School

Lead by instructor Bill Hannah, Viroqua High School's shop class, is a student favorite, covering a broad spectrum of subjects from small engines to drywall and basic electrical, all viable real-world skillsets, particularly in the rural setting of the Driftless Region. Like many small-town shop programs Hannah is well connected with the community he serves and that reach put him together with the folks at S&S Cycle. A staple in the performance motorcycle industry for the last 60 years, S&S employs 270 people, many of whom attended VHS or have children in their school system. "We were approached by a high school a few states away that has a fairly established engines program, and it occurred to us we should help create something like that locally" state's S&S Cycle's VP of Marketing David Zemla. Not only did S&S donate seven complete engines to the program, but they also supplied tools, a curriculum and sent in an instructor to support the work several times per week. "Before working at S&S Cycle, I was an instructor at a technical school that focused on the motorcycle industry, so helping with this program was an easy transition," says S&S Cycle's Kevin Boarts. Kids got the chance to break down an engine to the cases, learn the theories behind internal combustion and gain confidence in their ability to take something apart and put it back together correctly. S&S intends to roll the program out to several more schools across the next six months as well as offering internships to interested students during the summer months.
