About this Event
Join us for an unforgettable journey through Houston’s Historic Fourth Ward/Freedmen’s Town—a place where faith, resilience, education, and community transformed struggle into strength and vision into victory. This experience will take you deep into the living legacy of the Reverend Jack Yates.
As a special honor, bikers will receive an exclusive guided tour of the historic Jack Yates home, led by his very own granddaughter. Inside those walls lives the story of a man who used faith to build churches, education to empower communities, and leadership to create pathways for generations yet unborn.
Along the journey, we will also stop at the two historic churches Reverend Jack Yates pastored—Antioch Missionary Baptist Church and Bethel Baptist Church—places where hope was preached, lives were restored, and a people newly freed found strength, dignity, and purpose.
Every stop on this journey tells a story and you won’t just learn history on this tour—you’ll feel it.
Come honor the past, celebrate the legacy, and be inspired to ride into your future with a greater sense of purpose.
