Why Riders Attend

As winter ends, the D-Frost Run marks the start of Michigan’s ride season with purpose. You’ll ride alongside fellow enthusiasts, support a strong charity, enjoy camaraderie, hunt vendor patches or parts, and let loose at the after-party. It’s part rally, part ride-in-support, and part bike show party.

What You’ll Find

• Group ride route through southeast Michigan backroads
• Vendor area with motorcycle apparel, parts, accessories, and custom builds
• Dinner (historically included) and a full-blown after-party with live music / DJ
• Raffle prizes: big-ticket bikes or guitars or stereo systems
• Bike show entries and trophies

For Vendors & Sponsors

If you’re a vendor, parts dealer or sponsor, this is a high-visibility spring event. Vendor setup usually early (morning) and the crowd stays through the ride & party. Sponsorships often include logoed patches or event shirts. Contact the organizers for 2026 rates and space availability.

Tips for Attendees

• Arrive early to register and pick your ride packet with patch and raffle ticket
• Bring cash for vendor tables and raffles
• Ride cool but layer up: April in Michigan can still have a bite
• Stay for the dinner and after-party — the social time is part of the draw
• If you’re showing a bike, clean it the night before and plan to hang around for the photo ops
