Memorial Ride For Cannon Hinnant By: Lloyd and Rose he most
devastating thing I believe as a parent is to lose a child. The Hinnant family lost their son Cannon. A beautiful. 5yr old little boy, tragically gone in an instant. There is nothing that can change it or fix it, other than a lot of love and support, and prayers. On August 30th Xtreme Wings N Things in Winston-Salem , NC held a memorial ride for Cannon, raising money to help the Hinnant Family. You could feel the love in the air. There was a beautiful prayer blessing all, and to bring all riders home safely. Guardians of the Children was on hand to register the bikers. Over 250 bikers took a country ride, stopping at Double
D Burnout Saloon in Kernersville, Little Cedar Grocery in Kernersville, and then to The Ole Watering Hole in Wallburg, then back to Xtreme Wings where there was live entertainment, an auction, and partying on into the night. We got the opportunity to talk with the Hinnant family, they were amazed and overwhelmed by the love from the biker family. The family was very grateful as they saw how many people came together to do this, “Thanks and we’re keeping you in our prayers.” The was a lot of money raised, because the bikers always dig deep. We all know Cannon was smiling down that day, blessing all the sponsors. Thanks to the folks at Xtreme Wings keeping everyone wrangled and hydrated. Thanks also to Bikers Rally Against Bullying for logistics and planning, Fated Few for ride safety and security, Steel Rain for ride safety and security, Breaking the Chains for logistics and production, and Brew Beards for ride planning and leading the route. Thank you to Just Us Band for their efforts, and all the bikers that are always there.
