🏍️ VINTAGE MOTORCYCLE RIDE 2026 🏍️

Now that we’ve had a few days to catch our breath after the Canton Lions Club’s 7th Annual Fall Foliage Tour of the Mountains Adventure Bike Motorcycle Ride, we’ve had some time to reflect on another incredible weekend!

Our 2nd Annual Vintage Motorcycle Ride was another great addition to the weekend, bringing together riders, classic bikes, and plenty of opportunities to make memories along the way. From the beautiful mountain scenery to our special tour at the Eagles Mere Museum, Sunday’s ride was one to remember!

We also continued the tradition of recognizing some of the incredible bikes and riders who joined us for the Vintage Ride, with winners in three categories:

🏁 Modern Class (1986–2026) – Oldest finishing bike in class
🏁 Vintage Class (1970–1985) – Oldest finishing bike in class
🏁 Antique Class (1969 and older) – Oldest finishing bike in class

And, of course, the overall winner takes home the Fast Eddie Fisher Award, determined by combining the rider’s age with the age of their motorcycle. This award honors the memory of the late Ed Fisher and keeps his memory alive through a tradition that brings our riding community together.

🏆 This Year's Winners:

• Modern Class: Dave Carvin
• Vintage Class: Dave Scheffer
• Antique Class: Tommy Sephton
• Fast Eddie Fisher Award: Bob Harris

A huge THANK-YOU to everyone who came out to ride, everyone who helped organize the routes and stops, and everyone who volunteered their time to make this weekend such a success. Events like this wouldn't be possible without the people who show up, lend a hand, and make it all worthwhile 🏍️🍂

🏍️ A LITTLE FRIENDLY COMPETITION, A LOT OF FUN, AND ANOTHER GREAT WEEKEND! 🏁

After a full day of riding the beautiful mountain roads during Saturday’s 7th Annual Fall Foliage Tour of the Mountains Adventure Bike Motorcycle Ride, the fun wasn’t over yet! Riders made their way back to ride headquarters for a delicious pig roast meal (a HUGE thank-you to Jordan Andrus and Charlin Pepper, as well as Josh Pepper for making it happen! 🙌) followed by our annual skills competitions!

From slow-speed balancing acts to some serious two-wheel precision, we had participants and spectators cheering, laughing, and enjoying every minute of it! 😂👏

🏆 THIS YEAR’S SKILLS COMPETITION WINNERS:

🏁 Slow Bike Race – The goal? Be the LAST to cross the finish line without stopping or putting your feet down!
🥇 1st Place: Nick Mantzoros
🥈 2nd Place: Doug Allen Jr.

🏁 Plank Ride – Riders took on a 40-foot plank, trying to travel the entire distance without their wheels coming off the plank. Sounds easy… until you try it!
🏆 Winner: Nick Mantzoros

🏁 Golf Ball on a Cone – A test of balance, coordination, and teamwork! Riders had to transfer a golf ball from one cone to the next without dropping it, missing the cone, or putting their feet down. Fastest time wins!
🏆 Doubles Winners: Jordan Andrus & Charlin Pepper
🏆 Singles Winner: Robert Logue

📸 PICTURE SCAVENGER HUNT WINNERS!

We also had a little adventure within the adventure! Riders were challenged to find and photograph four specific locations along the route, then report back to ride headquarters to be entered for a prize.

The prize? FREE admission to next year’s 8th Annual Adventure Bike Motorcycle Ride! 🏍️🔥

Congratulations to our scavenger hunt winners, Erika Reinheimer and Chris Logue! We hope to see you both back out there next year!

A HUGE THANK-YOU to everyone who participated, cheered from the sidelines, helped organize the activities, cooked the food, volunteered their time, and helped make this weekend such a memorable one. Whether you came for the riding, the friendly competition, the food, or just the great company, you helped make this event what it is!

Great roads, great people, a little friendly rivalry, and memories that last long after the bikes are parked. ❤️

The 7th Annual Fall Foliage Tour of the Mountains Adventure Bike Motorcycle Ride & 2nd Annual Vintage Motorcycle Ride is officially in the books, and WOW — what an incredible weekend it was!

First and foremost, THANK YOU to every rider, volunteer, sponsor, business, and behind-the-scenes helper who made it all possible. Countless hours go into planning, mapping routes, making connections, organizing activities, setting up, and making sure everything comes together. This event takes a whole lot of people working together, and we couldn't do it without you!

And what a weekend we were blessed with! ☀️ The weather was perfect, the fall foliage was absolutely beautiful, and the camaraderie, laughs, friendships, and memories made along the way were what it's all about.

From Saturday's ride through the mountains to the pig roast, skills competitions, and an awesome evening at Armenia Mountain Spirits with live music, food, and drinks — the fun just kept going! Then Sunday brought the 2nd Annual Vintage Motorcycle Ride, complete with a special private tour of the Eagles Mere Museum. What a fantastic way to wrap up an unforgettable weekend!

Great roads. Beautiful scenery. Amazing people. Memories that'll last a lifetime. ❤️

Whether you joined us on two wheels, volunteered your time, helped behind the scenes, supported us through your business, or came out to enjoy the festivities — THANK YOU for being part of it. The people are what make this event special, and we're already looking forward to doing it all again!

Over the course of the day, we will be making multiple posts of highlights from the ride weekend. Stay tuned!

📸 GOT PICTURES OR VIDEOS? WE WANT TO SEE THEM! Drop them in the comments or send them our way! We'd love to see everyone's favorite moments. We'll also be gathering photos from throughout the weekend and will share a link once they're all together so everyone can enjoy them.

💬 HAVE FEEDBACK OR IDEAS FOR NEXT YEAR? We'd love to hear from you! Let us know what you loved, what we could improve, or what you'd like to see added next year.

From all of us with the Canton Lions Club Fall Tour of the Mountains crew, THANK YOU for making this year's ride one to remember!

Until next time, keep the rubber side down, keep making memories, and we'll see you back in the mountains! 🏍️🍂

Right in downtown Canton 😎

Jen’s been cleaning and apparently, everything she finds is going straight to the Treasure Table!

It’s officially overflowing with even more goodies, deals and random finds waiting for a new home.

If you haven’t checked the Treasure Table lately, now’s the time. Stop in, dig around and see what Jen decided had to go!

Just remember… once it’s gone, it’s gone!
