Thunder Bay’s 3rd Annual Ruff Ride & BBQ
This isn’t just another ride…
This is what bikers do.
We ride together.
We stand together.
And when it matters—we give back.
The Ruff Ride is fueled by compassion and driven by purpose—supporting the animals of Northern Ontario who rely on us to be their voice. Because out here, respect isn’t talked about… it’s lived.
100% of proceeds go directly to
Catlake Friends of Animush Humane Northern Animal Welfare
With Pamela Cowie, Volunteer Coordinator, and Mandy Ann, Founder of Road Angels Motorcycle Group, leading the charge—we’re bringing even more heart, horsepower, and impact to year three.
Expect a solid ride, good people, a great BBQ—and a cause that actually means something.
All riders. All passengers. All welcome.
Donation-based entry—give what you can, ride for those who can’t.
Huge respect, and thank you to our amazing sponsors—new and returning. You’re the reason this keeps growing stronger every year.
Let’s show Thunder Bay what this community is made of—
loud pipes, big hearts, and zero excuses. ✌
“Only a biker knows why a dog sticks its head out the window.”

Leather, Lace & Remembered Mothers
This Mother’s Day, we invite you to be part of a story that’s equal parts heartwarming and empowering — where meaningful connections come together in a beautiful tradition.
Now in its 4th annual year, the Road Angels — a devoted and spirited group of women motorcyclists and proud trailblazers of Thunder Bay — will once again deliver love on two wheels to some of the most deserving and often-overlooked women in our community: the senior mothers of Chartwell Isabella Retirement Residence.
What the Road Angels recognized is something often hidden in plain sight — the quiet loneliness many mothers experience in senior living homes. Some have family far away, and others have no visitors at all. What began as a simple act of kindness has grown into a powerful annual tradition, bringing joy, connection, and unforgettable moments filled with smiles, laughter, and even a few happy tears.
Event Details
Date: Sunday, May 10th
Meet-Up Location: Tim Hortons – 419 Edward Street
Time: 1:15 PM
Lady Riders will gather for a short meet before riding together to the residence on Isabella Street East. Upon arrival, we’ll take a few moments outside — giving the residents that exciting rush of energy and the unmistakable sound of motorcycles they’ve come to love.
From there, we’ll head indoors to join the residents for a special Tea Social, graciously prepared by them for this year’s visit — a beautiful opportunity to sit, connect, and share stories together.
While the Tea Social lasts only a few hours in the early afternoon, its impact is felt all year long.
The Road Angels are proudly extending this invitation to fellow Lady Riders who would like to be part of something truly meaningful.
(Sorry guys — this one’s just for the ladies )

Canadian Country Music Legend Carroll Baker bringing her final Canadian Tour to Thunder Bay!
Carroll Baker, "Canada's First Lady of Country Music" has announced plans for her final tour in the spring of 2025. After an extraordinary career she will grace stages across the country one more time bringing her cherished songs and signature performances to life "One Final Time".
Carroll Baker has been a powerhouse in the industry for over 55 years. Her remarkable career includes more than twenty #1 hits, fourteen albums, four compilation albums, and an astounding fifty five singles, solidifying her place as one of the most celebrated figures in Canadian music.
Carroll's final tour will cover more than twenty cities where fans will have the chance to experience the magic of her greatest hits and timeless classics one last time.
Her career launched in 1970 with her breakout song, "Mem-ries of Home", one that remained on the charts for an amazing twenty six weeks. Subsequent hits included “Ten Little Fingers”, and the AA anthem “One Drink Is One Too Many (and a thousand’s not enough)”. Between 1970 and 1982 she released 31 consecutive charting singles and hosted her own CBC television show, The Carroll Baker Jamboree. Her platinum album Hymns of Gold and five Juno Awards cemented her status as a country music legend. Baker’s accolades include induction into the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame in 1982 and her appointment to the Order of Canada in 2009.
Fans are encouraged to act fast as tickets are moving quickly. Carroll Baker is more than thrilled to be coming here along with her renowned band "Baker Street" – “One Final Time”.
