Dear Mr. Osberg,
I am writing to request that the City again grant permission to The Bikers In Need
organization to use the Northern one-half of the Municipal Parking Lot on Saturday,
morning August 23, 2008.The Bikers have come to Hastings for several years now and
they love the scenic beauty and the Historic Downtown District. The bikers should be
leaving Hastings around noon to continue their ride.
The Bikers In Need program is headed up by Mr. Dave Dahl of KSTP- TV. Mr. Dahl
started this organization after he had a terrible accident from which he was very fortunate
to survive. I believe the Bikers In Need membership is over 2000 and growing. They
advocate driver education and safety. They as their name implies assist riders that have
had unfortunate accidents.
Hastings can expect approximately 200 riders that will be greeted by Mayor Paul Hicks
upon arrival. The bikers stop in Hastings, will include having breakfast at the local
restaurants and then they will proceed with their ride which will end up joining other
groups of riders and finish by being allowed to drive thru the State Fair Midway during
the fair. Rick Kleis our former Fire Chief will be carrying our Flag and leading the bikers
on the ride. Thank you very much for your cooperation.
Respec y,
Ed Rivene `r`~"`~"`~
