and ride on the last Saturday in May. A bunch of bikers gathered at Blue Ridge Harley-Davidson, Hickory, NC, for the 2nd Annual Rolling Saints Hearts & Hope Poker Run. The ride was in memory of Greyson Ray Chamberlain and Luke Sigmon.

The ride wandered across the Carolina foothills ending at Mac’s Speed Shop in Cornelius. There were door prizes, raffles, 50/50 plus money prizes for best & worst hands. Stephen Seals won $200 for best hand, he gave $100 back, Anne Spencer won $100 for worst hand, she gave it back and Nick Hopkins was the winner of the 50/50 which he too gave back to The Hearts & Hope Foundation.

Thanks to Ricky and Jennifer Riley who organized the ride. This ride raised $6825 for Hearts & Hope. A special thank you to all the sponsors, stops, stop workers and for the support from the biker community because without you rides like this would not be possible.
