Only good things in my head
The Friendship Ride Germany 2011 raised 14,600 euros for a good cause, and from August 10th to 12th, 2012 it's party time again on the Wasserkuppe.
One of the most popular events in the Harley event calendar proves every year that “doing good” and “having fun” are by no means mutually exclusive. We're talking about the Friendship Ride Germany near Fulda in the Rhön region of Hesse. The mega party, which has been taking place since 2009, is as extraordinary as the venue on Hesse's highest mountain, because in contrast to most other motorcycle events, not only the supporting program but also the donation program ensures a lot of fun: Since the net proceeds go to charitable organizations, the guests enjoy it In addition to a cool party, the certainty of having made a contribution to a good cause.
Now Harley-Davidson Germany and the HOG Chapter Fulda-Rhön handed over the donation proceeds from the 2011 event. The German Society for Muscular Diseases (DGM eV), which is dedicated to researching and combating muscle diseases, received 10,950 euros. A further 3,650 euros went to the youth education center on the Wasserkuppe, which organizes leisure activities for kids and young people.
Of course, there will also be celebrations in the Rhön in 2012: From August 10th to 12th it's time again: Off to the Wasserkuppe!
Visitors can expect powerful stunt shows, demo rides on the latest Milwaukee Irons, a dealer mile with everything your Harley heart desires and of course lots of music and good vibrations. The unique parade, which will take hundreds of bikers along the most beautiful streets around the Wasserkuppe, promises to once again be a special highlight. And fans of good food can look forward to the delicacies of the “Rhöner Charme” catering association, which offers a range of dishes with its catering stands that go far beyond conventional snack standards.
Harley-Davidson warmly welcomes all visitors to the Wasserkuppe, no matter which brand your biker's heart beats for and regardless of whether you travel to the party on the bike or in the shuttle bus. The entry ticket is available for 10 euros, and one thing is certain: you can only get this much good stuff for that price at the Friendship Ride Germany!
