Annual Turkey Run Charity Ride – Ghost Ryderz Extreme MC

Ghost Ryderz Extreme MC hosts its annual Turkey Run charity motorcycle ride, gathering riders at Life Church Smyrna Assembly of God in Smyrna, Georgia, on Saturday, Nov. 21, 2026. The ride asks for one frozen turkey per rider instead of money, and the birds supply the centerpiece of a Thanksgiving meal the church provides to veterans and less fortunate families in the community.

Registration runs from noon to 1:30 p.m. Turkeys are weighed and stored at the church, so riders should not arrive with birds before or after the registration window. Drinks, coffee and snacks will be available, and the heaviest turkey donated receives recognition. Riders may have someone drive their turkeys to the church by car; most cars are not allowed on the ride or at the clubhouse because of safety and parking restrictions, though nonriders who want to support the event can donate during registration.

A blessing precedes the ride, which leaves between 1:30 and 1:45 p.m. and covers about 45 minutes of twisty roads to the Ghost Ryderz Extreme MC clubhouse in South Fulton, with the ride ending about 2:30 p.m. Free food will be available to all participants at the clubhouse, along with games, cold drinks at the bar and prize giveaways from sponsors. Fellowship continues until about 6 p.m., and the bar closes at 7:30 p.m.
