An Over Night Dice Run

Mighty Peace Tourism is working with me to create a DVD on riding in the North Peace.
The DVD Will feature some of the Peace Region's Motorcycle Events including the new Over Night Dice Run!

The Alliance for Injured Motorcyclists – Peace Country Chapter is proud to announce that they will be hosting a Dice Run in support of the Ride for Dad & AIM-Can - July 10th & 11th 2009

This year’s inaugural event will pave the way for an official chapter of Ride for Dad for the Peace Country in 2010! Not only that, but this event is being filmed as part of a broader tourism initiative with Mighty Peace Tourism Association that will see motorcycle riding in the north Peace be promoted more heavily.

The Dice Run will start off from Grande Prairie Regional Tourism located at:
11330 -106 St, Grande Prairie, phone: (780) 539-7688

Riders will gather between 5 pm and 6:15 pm. They will sign their waiver, pay their $20 ride fee, fill out a tourism survey and roll their first set of dice!

Proceeds from this event will be split between Ride for Dad and the Peace Country Chapter of the Alliance for Injured Motorcyclists.

Rider Pick-Up locations for outlying areas - (You will do your first dice roll, sign your waivers, pay your ride fee & fill out your tourism forms at these locations)

Sexsmith – Stojan’s Power Sports & Marine from 6:30 – 7pm

Rycroft – Alexander’s from 7:30 to 8 pm

We will then ride to our first Rider Pick-Up Point which is Stojan’s Power Sports & Marine in Sexsmith and head for our next Rider Pick-Up Point – Rycroft where we will pick up riders from the Fairview & Rycroft region. Next, we will head to Girouxville and in to Peace River for a Meet & Greet with complimentary finger foods hosted by the Sawridge Inn & Conference Centre.

We have Ride Prizes galore to give away at our various stops on both days!

Saturday morning riders will attend the Peace Fest Pancake Breakfast at the Co-op which is a donation breakfast running from 8:30 am to 11:0 am should they choose to.

At 11:00 am we will gather at the parking lot across from the BCM Inn to take part in the Peace River Toyker Run – hands are $5. We will be treated to a free lunch at Mackenzie Caron on the Shaftsbury Trail courtesy of the Village of Berwyn, Berwyn Bigway, Druckers Hardware in Berwyn and the Municipal District of Peace.

The Peace River Toy Run will end at our first Dice Run Roll stop of the day, Maximum Powersports in Peace River.

After our first dice roll of the day we will head to Grimshaw, make sure everyone has fuel and do a ride prize draw. We will then head for Hines Creek, Fairview, and Dunvegan and back to Centre 2000 between 6 pm and 7:30 pm for a wind up BBQ courtesy of the Holiday Inn Express (the hotel is owned by the Pomeroy Group & is celebrating its fifth Anniversary). It is here we get to find out which High Roller is the winner!

The entire event will be being filmed by Velocity Video and will be featured on the web and will be included as part of a larger DVD being produced for Mighty Peace Tourism in partnership with Travel Alberta, Grande Prairie Regional Tourism Association, Geo-Tourism Canada, Sawridge Inn & Conference Centre Peace River, Dee-Jay Motel, Dunvegan Inn & Suites, Brutal Tattoo, Maximum Powersports, Holiday Inn Express, Community Futures, PREDA
