Floyd County Fire Department Station 1 is holding a Bike and Car Cruise at the Floyd Auto Fair on August 25.  Proceeds go to help the department.

Registration starts at 9 a.m. at the Auto Fair at Chantilly Farms on Franklin Pike with first bike out at 11 a.m.  Entry is a $10 minimum and food can be purchased from the vendors at the Auto Fair.

Call Chad Mills (540) 267-4578 or Nathan Miller AT (540) 922-2484 if you need additional info.

Good time, good cause, good reason to put it on your calendar for later this month.

Another worthwhile cause for bikes is a charity ride for Bent Mountain Fire Chief Tim Worrell on Saturday, August 18 — the week before the Floyd Auto Fair.

Tim is a 31-year firefighter and a fellow member of the Roanoke Valley Harley Owners Group.  He is suffering from esophageal cancer.  Registration starts at 10 a.m. at the Fire Station on U.S. 221 and first bike out at 11:30 a.m.
