Cyberspokes Annual 
"Food Bank Run, Chopper Show & Benefit Party"
 - The last Saturday of every April

Food Bank Run at "Spider Grove"



This page is contains THREE SECTIONS: 

  1. Biker Events 

  2. Biker Cruise Nights

  3. Biker Event Calendars.

The Biker Events and Biker Cruise Nights sections contain detailed information on specific biker events and weekly cruises for the Buffalo & Western NY area.  

The Biker Event Calendars section was created because selected organizations (The Hog Farm, Hard Tales Mag, ABATE, BikerSource, etc.)  already do such a GREAT job putting together Event Calendars.  So, the folks here at Cyberspokes decided... Why reinvent the wheel?  Instead, let's pool all of these resources together into ONE CENTRAL RESOURCE!  Hence this section was born.  Rather than listing the event calendars alphabetically, we decided to list them in order of completeness for the Western New York area.  Our opinion of course. 

For more National events take a look at our Cyberspokes Club Events page.  If you can find it there, then hit our SEARCH or CONTENTS pages.

Each work day more than eighty million cars and light trucks commute on American roads, but only about 200,000 individuals regularly ride their cycles to work."Ride to Work Day reveals that motorcyclists come from all walks of life, work in all occupations, and range in age from teenagers to grandparents." The American Motorcyclist Association and many other worldwide rider organizations actively encourage all motorcyclists to ride their cycles to work as a grassroots demonstration on the third Wednesday in July each year. Many motorcycles are lightweight, efficient and consume less resources per mile than typical automobiles. A motorcycle's size and nimbleness advantages over cars and light trucks also means that adding more of them to the daily transportation mix makes urban parking easier, reduces road congestion and improves traffic flow. Experience consistently shows that urban motorcyclists reach their destinations faster and are more alert upon arrival than those using automobiles. Ride your bike to work, leave early and come to The Rez Fest & Dyno Drags! 716-549-5610

Dyno Drags, Food and Refreshments, 50/50 Split, Fire Works Display, Tickets are $5.00 and can be purchased ahead of time at JR's Smokeshop and Seneca Hawk Family Fun Center or at the door day of event. Non-alcohol Event. Teresi Dyno-Drag takes "inter-active" to a new level by allowing motorcycle enthusiasts to compete head-to-head with their own bikes under real racing conditions. Utilizing a pair of motorcycle dynos, Christmas tree starting lights and a computerized timing system, riders can test their racing skills and find out how fast their bikes really are - all in the safety of a stationary environment. Once "staged", the rider is looking down the simulated track, complete with an electronic scoreboard that displays top speed and elapsed time for each lane. With engines revving, the green light flashes and the riders accelerate their bikes side-by-side through the 1/4-mile stretch, just like at a real drag strip. And since every run is also a dyno-pull, the Teresi Dyno-Drag provides a printout of horsepower for each competitor. Anyone racing in the 2005 year will qualify for the 2006 Dyno Drag Nationals! Cash Prizes & Trophies & Winners will be featured in V-Twin Magazine $10,000 Purse. See our full-page ad in The Penny Saver. Even Last Place at the Nationals will get $1000!!!!
