Requirements:
AMA membership preferred, but optional. 50cc* street legal motorcycle & Legal Riders. Event takes place on public roads. You Must Obey All Traffic Laws. Lawlessness will not be tolerated!

*A Note on Bikes you can ride: It is a 50cc event and that is where you will have your most fun, But if you want to ride a 500 with one "0" crossed out, That is fine too. The 2017 Introduction of the GROMISH class will bring in masses of mini 125cc four strokers. Regardless of what you ride,
It's a FUN RUN , NOT a RACE! You must abide by local laws and speed limits.

Early Registration Helps the promoter who donates his time to give us this Monumental fun Event.


Personal Statement:
My friends and I have attended this event since 1982 & we have a blast every year. The Chemistry of the People, Motorcycles, and Perfect Location make the True Grits 50cc Fun Run a never to be missed Event. The Fun Run family spans from coast to coast with entrants driving over 3000 miles to attend. Every Rider gets a Trophy Placement Plate to put on (BRING YOUR OWN TROPHY) which applies to your finish position. Previous Event Hats and Shirts are also available. Look forward to seeing You at the next Event.
Sincerely, Jeff Champion - Grits Webmaster Email Me  

Proceeds:
The volunteer fire department we support is the Union County volunteer fire Station #5 located in Suches, Georgia. This fire department operates a rescue service and is motorcycle friendly. Our annual event has been one of their largest annual fundraisering events. We do not mention the fire department in our flyer for several reasons mostly the liability of using their name on a motorcycle event. Our "official procedure" is to participate in a cookie sale and we buy the first cookie for about $2000 - $4000 then fun runners and others donate generously for each cookie purchase. Fire Station # 5 is always Grateful for the Donation. Woody Gap Highschool also receives part of the funds Raised.

We make the check payable to the Union County fire department station #5 to make sure it stays with the Suches station. Further information you can contact the True Grits promoter, Ben Cheatwood @ 770-329-3259
