The premier motorcycling event in Oklahoma, Thunder Run VI, is fast approaching. This charity event comes once again to Oklahoma City on April 9-11, 2010 at OKC Thunder Cycles on Memorial & Western. Thousands of motorcyclists from all over Oklahoma and surrounding states descend on north Oklahoma City for a weekend of fun, food, music and good times. Sam Wills and his crew at OKC Thunder Cycles, along with Eric at Thunder Roadhouse Cafe always put on a top notch event. They have raised over $251,000 for multiple sclerosis since starting this event.

This year OKC Thunder Cycles will be giving away a 2010 Big Dog Mastif motorcycle and matching trailer to raise money for MS.

You can also see “The Wall of Death” where riders circulate in a big round barrel. The well-attended poker run will be held Sunday, as they try for a Guinness Book of World Records for the largest poker run.

Trouble in Terlingua

Three intrepid Oklahoma dual sport riders and a friend from Kansas head to Terlingua in the winter to explore Big Bend National Park. Trouble awaits the unwary crew after a rare rainstorm turns the normally dry desert into sticky mud that burns clutches and strands our riders overnight in the freezing desert.
