When I found the bike for sale I had no money, but I knew I would have liked to have this bike. So I invented a method to raise the cash and throw a great party at the very same time.

I threw a Poker Run. Everyone tries to make the best five card poker hand. The way that it is played is, each bike has to ride a planed rout, every couple of miles there are checkpoints at every checkpoint on the way each bike must stop and receive a card. Along the rout there are 7 checkpoints, and at the end the rider with the best 5 card poker hand wins the prize over time the poker run has been adopted to exponents of many various past-times. The poker run was initially an event bike riders played on their Harley’s, but over time it’s been borrowed by boaters and even runners. Throwing a poker run is reasonably easy but requires time and some not to tough work. The first thing you have got to do is get approval from the cities that your poker run will go thru. There could be some bureaucracy and costs. Dependent on where you reside you may also need a permit for the park.

Next you will need riders.

By working out how much you would like to have for the prize money and how much the part after the poker ride will cost can work out how many riders you will need and how much the entrance charge will be, nevertheless it should not be any more then $100 per bike. The very next thing you’re going to need to do is register riders. The simplest way to do that is to make a site, go to biker bars and biker events in your area. If you live in N. Y don’t go to Daytona Bike week to enroll riders, the majority will not travel that far for a poker run. Attempt to get neighbours. After you’ve registered the riders you currently have to prepare plans for the party. With registering riders for your poker run you have to also sell tickets so acquaintances and family can join in the party after the ride is over and the poker winner is published. The most effective way to publicize the party is on a local radio station and with posters round the city. The more people you can get the more money you may have for a prize and for whatever cause you are endeavoring to raise money for. You may either, get your own food and get some chums to help cook or you can look in the phonebook for a caterer and you could be capable of finding a caterer who will throw you a great BBQ.

Then all you need to do is wait for the critical day and enjoy all the bikes, poker, beef and beer.
