About Parker's Ride

It's getting close to the end of the riding season - let one of your last motorcycle rides be in support of a worthwhile cause!

Parker's Ride is a chance for you to ride your motorcycle to raise funding and awareness for Parker's House, a transitional homeless shelter in Durham, NC. We'll meet at the statue of Washington Duke on the East Campus of Duke University between the East Duke And West Duke buildings. The event starts at 9am - we'll recognize a few folks and groups for their contributions to Parker's House for this past year and then take a short motorcycle ride through a portion of Duke Forest and the rural areas surrounding Durham, NC.

Parker's Ride is also the closing ride of a much larger effort that some ambitious riders did this year, starting in May. If you haven't seen the Parker's Ride video, watch it here, then come back to this web page.

Parker's Ride was like a scavenger hunt across the state of North Carolina. Participants had five months to complete as much of it as they could. The goal was to travel to all of the North Carolina locations shown in the video between May 1, 2010 and September 30, 2010. At each of the towns listed in the song, participants got a photo of themselves to prove you were there. We will recognize those riders that participated at our event on Oct. 16.
