A Special Celebration for Charlie
at Route 66 BikeStock OK Rally
Family. Brotherhood. Loyalty. These words define what the Route 66 Rally is all about, and no one embodies that spirit more than Charlie.
For nearly 20 years, Charlie has been the heart of this rally, giving his time, energy, and love to make every event unforgettable. He’s never done this for recognition or profit—just for the love of the rally, the riders, and the incredible community we’ve built together. Even as he fights his battle with cancer, he’s still out here doing what he loves, making sure every Route 66 Rally is one for the books. That kind of dedication, that kind of love, that kind of man, deserves to be honored.
This May, at the Route 66 BikeStock OK Rally, we’re coming together to celebrate Charlie.
On Saturday, May 3rd (time to be announced), we will hold a special ceremony where everyone who has ever been touched by Charlie’s kindness, passion, and hard work will have the chance to speak—share a memory, a story, or just some words of love and appreciation. Charlie’s mother and family will be there, so we ask that everyone be respectful during this time. But don’t worry—the rest of the rally will still be the wild, rowdy, good time that Charlie has worked so hard to create for all of us!
If you have ever been to a Route 66 Rally, or if you’ve ever thought about coming, THIS is the one you don’t want to miss. Let’s show Charlie just how much he means to this community. Let’s give back even a fraction of what he’s given to all of us over the years.
Please help spread the word. Let’s make this the biggest, most unforgettable rally yet—for Charlie.
