Ohio Bikers Raise Money For Veterans

Hundreds of bikers gathered in Zanesville, Ohio, over the weekend
for the 30th Annual Old Boy Bikers Veteran's Bike Show.
The chrome was on full display as bikers flocked from around the
area to support local veterans. The Old Boy Bikers have been
putting the show together to benefit veterans for more than three
decades. This year, they were able to get a whopping 32 motorcycles
to be raffled off. All the proceeds went toward local veteran
organizations.
"They fought for our country," Kenny Forsythe, who organized the
show, told WHIZ News. "The ones that come back, they're having fun
and help us remember the ones that gave their life for us."
Forsythe said he was working to change the perception of bikers,
telling the news source that motorcyclists get a bad rap from
movies and TV shows. Instead, the Old Boy Bikers were dedicated to
raising money for charities and putting on a family-friendly show
that everyone in the area could enjoy. They were assisted by a
women's riding group, the Bad Girls Bikers, who are associated with
the "Old Boys."
Other attractions at the show included numerous vendors, several
concerts, games for kids and a poker run.
