Roland Sands will be the event’s ”Legend of the Sport” honoree. His designs have played a role in popularizing high-performance custom V-Twins, and his Roland Sands Design operations provide everything from parts to apparel. His designs have earned three V-Twin Wheel Design of the Year awards, a Biker Build-Off championship on the Discovery Channel, and he was the 2018 Sturgis Motorcycle Rally Grand Marshal.
