\"\"<\/p>\n

As some of you already know, Dennis Kirk is the presenting sponsor for an annual event called the Patriot Ride<\/a>. Every year thousands of riders gather to show support for Minnesota’s military, veterans, and their families in this 60 mile charity ride. In honor of this event we thought we would share the patriotic spirit with our online community with a new contest.<\/p>\n

We all have people we look up to and admire, people we call our heroes. In this contest we want to hear your story about your motorcycle riding hero. It could be a veteran, a family member, a friend, or even a stranger you look up to. Tell us about this motorcyclist and why they are your hero. It doesn’t have to be someone who has served in the military, we just want to hear about riders you admire.<\/p>\n

\"\"What do you win?<\/strong><\/p>\n

1st Place – AFX FX-70 Black Flag Beanie Helmet<\/p>\n

2nd Place – Pro Pad Square Sissy Bar Flag Mount<\/p>\n

3rd Place – Official 2012 Patriot Ride T-shirt<\/p>\n
