One of a kind long distance endurance ride for motorcycles is still “The Toughest Ride for the Toughest Riders on Earth!”
Planning for the 2014 Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge(TM) is currently underway and applications are now being accepted for participation in this extraordinary endurance rally.
While planning for the 2014 event, organizers have carefully reviewed the last four years to identify improvements to be made going forward. A communication addressing the facts surrounding the event can be read at HokaHeyChallenge.com. Director of Operations, Beth Durham states, “The Medicine Show LLC has formed a new Board of Directors and we are doing everything in our power to position the Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge(TM) as an annual, iconic experience that makes history in the annals of American motorcycling.”
The Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge(TM) is the first of its kind – a long distance endurance ride designed to pit participants against the road and Mother Nature. By getting riders out of their comfort zone, the Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge(TM) not only opens the participants’ eyes to the deplorable conditions on remote Indian reservations around America but it brings out the riders’ own true character as well. The warrior spirit will always surface for any one that runs the Challenge with integrity, tenacity and heart. A photo gallery, the riders lists and some stories about how the event impacted the riders can be found on the event website. These are the stories that must be read in order to understand the significance of the platform that the Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge(TM) offers.
The 2014 event begins on July 20, 2014 and covers a little over 7,500 miles between Key West, FL and Homer, AK – using a new route to connect two favorite destinations. This year, all riders who follow the rules of engagement” and arrive at the finish line by the 2nd of August, will be eligible for the prize drawings that will take place at the “End of the Road” party in Homer. Also; following the precedent set in 2013, trophies will be awarded to the four riders that participate in the true spirit of the Challenge and exhibit RESPECT, HONOR, INTEGRITY and COMPASSION during the event.
Durham stated that “Although there have been some changes in the way the Challenge will be run, the Board promises to uphold the same mission of the event along with the hard-core intensity that participants have come to expect from the Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge!”
The entry fee is $1,000 and riders must be at least 18 years of age to participate. Applications can be found online at www.hokaheychallenge.com or call 605-890-0386 for more information.
