As an enthusiast in the bike community for over two years, I have experienced first-hand the joy and camaraderie that these events bring. I have been attending the Caffeine and Octane show on a bike for half a year now. This monthly event is not just a showcase, it is a gathering where friendships are formed, stories are shared, and passions are ignited.

People from all corners of the state congregate at these shows, drawn by a love for cars and bikes. For many in our community, it has become a tradition, a source of unparalleled happiness and fellowship. Unfortunately, our bike showcase has been threatened because of the recent incidents caused by a minority. As a community, we believe that it is patently unfair that the joy of many should be sacrificed because of the actions of a few.

A research by The Motorcycle Industry Council states that the number of households in America owning motorcycles has reached a record high of 8.02% in 2018. We represent a significant portion of attendees, an indication of the growing popularity and importance of bikes in our community. It is for this reason that we entreat Caffeine and Octane to continue including our bike showcase in their monthly car show.

Therefore, we call upon Caffeine and Octane organizers to hear our plea, understand the significance of this showcase, and reinstate our presence at this much-loved event. Please sign this petition to support our cause.
