This is a press release from Roland Sands Design…
Los Alamitos, CA (May 14, 2019) – The Moto Classic Series started out as a wild idea from the mind of Roland Sands and crew and developed into a Southern California motorcycle cultural explosion. This year we’ve geographically expanded with the Mayo Moto Street Classic in Tulsa, Oklahoma Saturday June 15th – promising everything from what you’ve come to expect, and so much more. We’ve joined forces with the Mayo Moto Museum with one of the greatest motorcycle, music, and art cultural experiences to hit the Midwest.
The festival hosts the fifth stop of the 2019 Progressive presented Super Hooligan National Championship (SHNC) powered by Indian, a series of heavy bike flat track motorcycle races across the U.S. curated by Roland Sands Design, a California-based motorcycle, product, apparel, and event company. In addition to Super Hooligan riders racing through the streets of downtown Tulsa, the festival features The Lansing Street Drag Races, Moto Classic Bike show, Stay Gold Art Show, Stunt Show and a vendor village. The Mayo Moto Street Classic is also hosting the official grand opening of the Mayo Moto Museum, a motorcycle and memorabilia collection boasting 200+ rare and unseen vintage bikes.
Live musical performances take place on an indoor stage throughout the day with local and regional music acts. At 8 p.m., the music will move outdoors to the main stage with a performance from Tulsa’s Paul Benjaman Band, followed by headliner, southern soul rockers, JJ Grey & Mofro.
Tickets to this event are $35. A percentage of the gate proceeds will be donated to support Oklahoma teachers.
“We are so excited to be a part of this event,” says Jason White, 2003 Heisman winner and Vice President of Air Comfort Solutions, the festival’s presenting sponsor. “This festival will draw people from all over the country to our city. It’s a great opportunity to showcase all Tulsa has to offer. We are particularly happy to be able to contribute some of the proceeds from this new event back to the hardworking Oklahoma teachers.”
In its third season, Progressive MC presents the RSD Super Hooligan National Championship powered by Indian Motorcycle, is a potent mix of moto culture, customs, and competition. Super Hooligan race rules are simple; 750cc and up, production street bikes with flat track tires in stock frames. This series brings racing to the people in unexpected locations like downtown Tulsa, where a specially built TT track will be assembled by the Mayo Moto team. Expect local riders and national caliber talent battling elbow to elbow in a mix of classes.
“It’s incredible to bring the Super Hooligans to Tulsa,” says RSD founder, Roland Sands. “Bob Wills was a cousin to my grandma, so I grew up listening to steel guitar and Texas Swing. Bringing the love of music and motorcycles together in one place with the type of energy provided by Tulsa is a special opportunity, and we have an amazing partner in John Snyder and the Mayo crew. We’re racing in the streets!”
