Joplin bike expo slated; safety events planned
The Joplin Police Department will present safe-riding seminars. Eric Slagle, general manager of Powersports of Joplin, will do a safety-equipment presentation. Lowe said Slagle will talk to riders about the types of gear that will help keep them safe in different riding conditions.
“He’ll talk about what kind of helmet to use and what’s going to help you if you have an accident,” Lowe said.
The motorcycle club also conducts fund-raising projects to pay for scholarships at Franklin Technology Center. Lowe said expo organizers are looking for vendors to set up booths selling food, motorcycle-related merchandise and any type of vintage collectibles. Proceeds from the rental of those booths will go to the scholarship fund.
In addition to the motorcycle club, those helping to put on the festival are the Joplin Parks and Recreation Department, the Joplin Convention and Visitors Bureau, the Joplin Police Department, Powersports of Joplin, West 60 Cycle, and Cycle Connection.

Saturday
