Lake of the Ozarks Bikefest

The 2017 Lake of the Ozarks Bikefest was held on September 13th – 17th where over 65,000 motorcycles and 90,000 people were in attendance.  The 11th year of the event saw growth with more bikes, more people and long lengths of overnight stays.  The Lake of the Ozarks Bikefest was advertised throughout the Midwest via biker publications, events, mailings, flyers, postcards, radio, billboard, internet, e-mail and biker word of mouth.  The organizers of the event hosted the Passport Program where riders purchased a $20 passport and then rode to 24 separate locations where they received a stamp and then turned the completed passport in at the Lake of the Ozarks Harley-Davidson Shop for a drawing that was held at 4:00 pm on Sunday, September 17th.  The lucky winner, Mike McCarty, from Ankeny, IA won the 2015 Harley-Davidson Dyna Wide Glide.  Proceeds from the Passport Program are used to promote the event and portion is allocated to benefit the efforts of the loca...
