A MASSIVE thank you to everyone for coming out and braving the heat and a little bit of rain to make this year’s Rockerbox the best ever. With your help, we raised over $2,000 for The Steel Shoe Fund! An extra special thanks to Milwaukee Vespa/Reina International Auto for sponsoring the Official Ride to Rockerbox and to Speedcult Detroit and Lowbrow Customs (from Ohio) for coming all the way to Milwaukee and setting up in the rain just to be with you! And last but not least, thank you to our boys at The Shop, our crew and awesome volunteers. You guys rock!

Just so you’re not waiting all winter to find out when we’ll be back, we’d like to announce that Rockerbox 2010 will be held on Saturday, August 7th. Next year will include an even more eclectic Bike Show mix with new classes (reflecting more closely what is going on with bike building today) and a lot more swap vendors (we were told that the swap booths were hugely successful this year).
Part of the idea that RBOX was founded on was to revive the swap meet (in spite of eBay)! So, get a swap spot (only $25!), bring your odds and ends, share a spot to park your bike(s), stash your gear and hang out with friends. A great and inexpensive way to spend the day.
To stay posted with the latest info, go to our website www.rockerbox.us , friend us on Facebook www.facebook.com/rockerbox or MySpace www.myspace.com/rockerboxmilwaukee
Thanks again and see you next year!
