Crowd Funding Campaign Is On For New Biker Film

Why We Ride Films, the production team behind the critically acclaimed motorcycle movie Why We Ride, is launching a Kickstarter campaign to help fund its new film I Am Sturgis.   "We've received thousands of letters from fans telling us that after seeing Why We Ride they decided to 'throw their leg over two-wheels' and become motorcyclists," says James Walker, producer of Why We Ride.

Sturgis Bah Humbug: Every Party Has A Pooper
