The 18th Annual Bruce Rossmeyer Ride for Children will be held October 7, 2012 and is gearing up to be the biggest and best Ride ever!

It began with the compassion of one man…
and continues with the dedication of his family.

In 1995, Bruce Rossmeyer, owner of Daytona Harley-Davidson became involved with Camp Boggy Creek. After visiting this amazing Camp for children with chronic and life threatening illnesses, he pledged to raise $1,000,000 within ten years. Thanks to the support and help from so many motorcycle enthusiasts throughout Florida and the Southeast, over $4,000,000 has been generated since inception.

It succeeds with the generosity of all…

This year we welcome our volunteer executive committee John Hamlin – Chair, Stacey Knerler, Cory Shea and Robert and Helen White thanks for their commitment along with the Rossmeyer family. The Ride continues to grow every year and not only raises dollars but much needed awareness of the Camp. Last year’s Ride netted almost $200,000 for the kids of Camp Boggy Creek. None of this would be possible without the generous sponsors, supporters, riders, volunteers and employees of Daytona Harley-Davidson who make this great Ride possible. Past Grand Marshals have included Paul Newman, General Norman Schwarzkopf, Kyle Petty, Lorenzo Lamas, Steven Tyler of Aerosmith, Orange County Choppers – Paul Sr. and Paul, Jr., Arlen Ness, Eddie Trotta, Roland Sands, Jesse Rooke, the late Johnny Chop, James Gandolfini and Aida Turturro of the Sopranos, Vinnie DiMartino and Cody Connelly, Dave Perewitz, the Monsters of the Morning from Real Radio 104.1 and Frank Scott of WHOG 95.7 Radio.
