Jay Leno and Peter Fonda are both lending some star power to the 28th annual Love Ride charity event on October 23rd in Castaic Lake, California. Fonda will contribute to the fest by signing the 10 trophies awarded to the winners of the Love Ride Bike Show, and Jay Leno will invite the winners to his classic car garage.
The Love Ride bike show is open to open to both professional builders and amateurs.
"Of course we love to see what the professional builders put together," said Love Ride founder Oliver Shokouh. "By the same token, we love the personal touches and creativity we often see in enthusiast rider's bikes, so we want those guys to have a shot at being recognized, too. With this spirit in mind, Peter and Jay have generously offered their special touch to help us create a pair of really memorable prizes."
The builders will compete in 10 separate categories. Pre-1940, 1941 to 1965, Harley-Davidson XL, Harley-Davidson FX (includes soft tail), Harley-Davidson FL, Best Bagger (any make), Custom Chopper (any make), Bobber (any make), Female Owned (any make),People's Choice (from all categories).
The winner of each category will get a trophy built from a Harley Davidson piston. Each of the trophies will have Peter Fonda's signature engraved into the piston crown.
The winners will also get a guided tour of Jay Leno's garage.
The Love Ride Foundation was started in 1984. Motorcycle entusiasts from all over have been giving to the non-profit organization to riase money for children's charities.
