Biker Rally Raises Money For Charity

Lots of chrome glittered in the sunshine today in Crystal Springs.

Close to 3-thousand people revved up their bikes and took part in the 3rd annual bike rally at Chautauqua Park. The rally featured bike shows, live entertainment, and a parade through Crystal Springs.

But it's more than just fun on wheels. The event raises money for a good cause.

"To give proceeds to our charity, which is the national autism association. Proceeds go back into the Crystal Springs parks and recreation, and proceeds go back into the rally for next year's rally," says Jimmy Gallman, bike rally president.

The rally also featured a display by the Patriot Guard Riders, in honor of U.S. Troops overseas.
