This year marks the second annual Rockers, Riders & Ribs event in Longview, Texas, and the promoter promises, “the biggest party East Texas has ever seen!”
The event, Oct. 20-21, is promoted by the Longview News-Journal, the major newspaper in Longview. Talk about positive press for motorcycling. Bravo!
Longview is in the Piney Woods region of East Texas, and the event offers access to some good local riding—including two scheduled runs. Rockers, Riders & Ribs is situated in downtown Longview, covering about eight city blocks. You can park your motorcycle and walk to the featured events.
