		<description><![CDATA[<p>Ride for Sight is the longest running motorcycle charity fundraiser in Canada; the first ride began in 1979 in Central Ontario. Each regional Ride has its own unique features. Annual Ride for Sight weekend celebration events are supported in part by generous corporate sponsorship and are organized by volunteer Ride for Sight Planning Teams. <strong>While Ride for Sight participants are primarily comprised of motorcyclists -- volunteers, fundraisers and supporters also include non-motorcyclists and families affected by retinal diseases.</strong></p><p>Ride for Sight is the single largest private fundraising initiative for vision research in the world. To-date, Ride for Sight has raised more than $19 million in support of the Foundation Fighting Blindness, the only organization in Canada whose mandate is to fund research for blindness caused by retinal degenerations.</p><p>We are so excited to be bringing the ride to the beautiful waterfront of the Soo for the very first time! Be sure to <em>Save the Date</em> and check back often for  updates on all of the great things that we have planned for this celebration weekend.</p><br /><br /><a href='http://www.welcomebikers.com/index.php?com=detail&eID=1450' class='bbc_url' title=''>View Full Details, Map, Weather, Contacts and more for this Biker Event</a>]]></description>

Situated against the shoreline of Lake Somerville, a 12000 acre lake, the biker rally is enhanced by a beautiful panorama of natural beauty. The dates decided on for the rally were determined by the Texas weather cycle. Being a rain or shine event, April was our best option. Past events held at this location were attended by 3500 to 5000 guests. For one of the best experience of a lifetime come to The Lake Somerville Rally.</p><br /><br /><a href='http://www.welcomebikers.com/index.php?com=detail&eID=1447' class='bbc_url' title=''>View Full Details, Map, Weather, Contacts and more for this Biker Event</a>]]></description>
