The 2020 Tanks for Troops auction event is back, after a short hiatus, to benefit military veterans.
Carey Hart is back and once again hosted Good Ride’s Tanks for Troops event, which in its 2020 iteration showcased a unique selection of custom-designed Indian Motorcycle tanks up for auction. Good Ride is a 501(c)(3) charity organization started by the freestyle motocross rider turned streetbike builder to focus on giving back to the community.
The motorcycle and military community and giving back to them was the theme for the 2020 Tanks for Troops event, which includes a silent auction of the aforementioned custom-painted Indian Motorcycle FTR 1200 tank covers to raise funds for the Infinite Hero Foundation. This military charity exists to combat mental and physical illnesses affecting military heroes and their families, directly helping veterans in need. The one-of-a-kind tanks to be displayed will cover the subject gamut, ranging from tattoo and motorsport-flavored designs to fine art and military-inspired pieces.
With 24 Indian Motorcycle tank covers designed by various artists including his own daughter, and over 300 people in attendance at last night’s event, Hart and his team raised $28,000, and it all goes to support US military veterans and families who may be struggling with physical or mental challenges, and are in need of financial support and additional resources.
Please note, the auction is now closed, however, it is not too late to donate to the Good Ride Charity.
