Havasu Tri State Bikefest 2016

Participants in the Havasu Tri State Bikefest 2016 will start off at either Baddogs Bar & Grill or the Flying X Saloon on McCulloch Blvd. From there, they will be trekking to Kingman (Desert Thunder Victory), Fort Mohave (Texaco 95 & Joy Lane) and Bullhead (Eagle Motorcycle Rentals). At each stop, every contestant will select one card to add to their poker hand. The top five hands at the end of the run will be awarded cash prizes, with $1000 to the best hand of the day.

A poker run is nice, but there is so much more to do at the Havasu Tri State Bikefest 2016. The band Crosscutt will be performing at the Flying X Saloon from 1pm to 5pm. That is also where you will find the beer garden (must be at least 21 to purchase and/or consume alcohol). Don't miss the bike show on Main St going on all day long. Peruse what the vendors have to sell at the swap meet. When you get hungry, there will be plenty of food vendors on-site selling delicious food.

A portion of the proceeds from the Havasu Tri State Bikefest 2016 will be donated to the Western Arizona Humane Society. Admission to the poker run is $25 per person. If you wish to play an extra hand (to hedge your bets on the grand prize), it will cost you another $20. Not riding? Then it won't cost you a dime to listen to some great music and visit the vendor booths. Registration is available at any of the stops along the poker run. You can also register online at Tri-StateBikeFest.com.
