On the first weekend of May, Fort Smith in Arkansas will be buzzing with the activity of the Steel Horse Rally. This annual rally, which supports local charities, will see the return of community favorite events like the Cops and Cones Motorcycle Exhibition and the Thunder through the Valley Motorcycle Parade, along with a new event, the Steel Horse Strongman Showdown.

The Steel Horse Strongman Showdown will feature professional and amateur men and women athletes competing head-to-head in several categories, such as the Axle and Circus Dumbbell Clean Medley, the Husafell Max Distance Carry in 60 Seconds, and more. The Showdown is an officially sanctioned event, and athletes who win at this event can advance to Regional Strongman Competitions.

The Steel Horse Rally Entertainment Stage will be the center of activity, featuring live entertainment like this year’s headliner, Hillbilly Vegas. The Steel Horse Handle Bar, where attendees can grab a drink and a official rally charity cup, will also be nearby. All proceeds from the sales of the charity cup will go to Antioch for Youth & Family, Buddy Smith Veterans Home, and the Children’s Service League.

“You don’t have to be a biker to enjoy the sights, sounds, and tastes of the Steel Horse Rally. Experience the variety of vendors and events that are free and fun for the entire family,” said Steel Horse Rally President Dennis Snow. “We encourage bikers to ride the incredible motorcycle roads in the area, and you can support the Steel Horse Rally by riding in the Public Guardians Poker Run and the Law Enforcement Fun Run that showcase some of the area’s fantastic roads.”
