This weekend, October 10-11, 2009, the Annual Bike Blast will take place in Titusville, FL.  This event is very special to us because it is coordinated by Wilton Dedge, who was exonerated in 2004 after DNA testing proved he did not commit the rape for which he was convicted and imprisoned.

Wilton owns a great biker bar in historic Titusville called the Southern Room (345 S Washington Ave) which will be the epicenter of the the event.  They expect there to be as many as 5,000 bikes at this 2-day event.

The best part is that they will be having a Poker Run  to raise money for the Innocence Project of Florida, which will assist our efforts to find and free the wrongfully convicted.  You can view the Poker Run flier and register for the Poker Run.  If you would like to be a vendor at the Bike Blast, you can see vendor information and fill out this vendor form.

Come to this great event and support Wilton and the Innocence Project of Florida.  For more information, please refer to the Bike Blast flier.

Yo can pre-order a t-shirt that will bear the really cool image above for $15 (which includes shipping) by calling Tina Dedge at 321-208-4768, or by sending your payment to: Bike Blast T-Shirt Order, The Southern Room, 345 S Washington Ave., Titusville, FL 32796.
