Canada - A B.C. event promoter wants to bring thousands of bikers, including the Hells Angels, to a motorcycle rally in the North Okanagan this July.
Sturgis North brought as many as 40,000 bikers to Salmon Arm, B.C., last summer.
This year promoter Ray Sasseville expects the motorcycle rally and rock festival will draw even more people, and is moving it to the Motoplex Speedway race track near Vernon.
"I will make it successful. The motorcycle community is very strong," said Sasseville.
Members of the Hells Angels bike gang were at the five-day festival last summer, some of them selling their branded merchandise.
And members are welcome to return, said Sasseville.
"They are part of the motorcycle community and we don't want to be segregating," said Sasseville.
