The Spring Flood Run, one of the oldest and largest motorcycle runs in the country, will take place on Saturday, April 20th when thousands of bikers head down the Mississippi River on Highway 35 in Wisconsin or Highway 61 in Minnesota.
Motorists and riders are asked to take extra care to keep everyone safe by riding smart, driving smart and looking out for each other.
The 59th annual event, which grew out of an effort by bikers to help sandbag in the Winona area during the 1965 floods, continues to be a charity event.
Now it raises money for Gillette Children’s Specialty Healthcare in St. Paul. People help out by buying wristbands for $10.
KWNG will be broadcasting live Saturday from 10 am – noon from Outpost Bar & Grill in Bay City.
