Forget Work Lets Ride Day (Last Wednesday in June Every Year)

A Day to Ride with those We Love, Those We have never Rode with & in Memory of all we will Never get to Ride with again! It was one of the best rides ever.
(6)

Many of you have heard of Ride to work Day. Well how about "Forget Work Lets Ride Day"? It is a one day Biker Holiday, where everyone who Rides ditches work. The event takes place on the last Wednesday in June every year. Motorcycle riders meet up with friends at around 9am to Ride out to a local Tourist Spot in their area for a one day Biker Holiday. The First Forget Work Let's Ride was the Last

Wednesday in June 2010 when two Friends Big Tom Berg and LJ James decided to Forget Work and go out Riding

The Event was Officially started on Long Island in NY on Wednesday June 29th 2011 the last Wednesday in June.It comes from the mind of Long time Biker Rights Activist, Freelance Writer on the Biker Lifestyle, Biker Radio Show Host and one of the owners of the Skull Gear Apparel Inc ( www.skullgearapparel.net ) Clothing Line "Your Bro LJ James" (facebook.com/AmericanBikerX)

The idea for "Forget Work and Let's Ride Day" came in 2010 when after losing his license for over 90 days on the last day of June 2010 a Wednesday, LJ got his License back. When LJ went to get on his Motorcycle and ride to work, His Bro Big Tom Berg saw him and asked "We going Riding"? LJ replied I can't, I got to go to work ! To which Big Tom said some thing that sounded real Similar to "Forget Work Lets Ride" after thinking about it for a few seconds LJ said OK . LJ James and Big Tom Berg spent hours riding all over Long Island, NY stopping to Hang out in Montauk, NY. The Two Bro's experienced a perfect day of Riding and Biker Brotherhood ! About a Month later on August 7th 2010 Big Tom Berg was killed while riding when a car hit him from behind. After Big Toms Death all LJ James could think of was of how close he had been to not taking that ride with Big Tom Berg that last Wednesday in June, LJ had though as many of us do there would be many other chances to ride with his Bro Big Tom in the Future. That is the reason LJ James decided to declare the last Wednesday in June every Year a Biker Holiday, where every person who rides a Motorcycle (No matter what Brand it may be) puts everything they may have to do aside and spends the day out riding with his or her fellow Motorcycle Riders stopping at a local tourist area to relax and then ending the day at a cool Biker Friendly bar. The perfect one day Biker Holiday. This Ride and day is to spend with those we love to ride with, Those we have not yet had the chance to ride with and in Memory of those we will never get to ride with again ! Forget work Lets Ride Day is an idea and there are no rules to the day other then get out there and Ride! All too often we put off taking that ride with our Bro's and Friends for one of many reasons, Well this is the day to Forget everything and just go out riding! ( In case of Rain go to work and take the next Sunny day off and go Riding )
