My name is Jimmy Burns — road name “TACO.” I
am returning to the Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge for the second time,
after completing my first challenge in 2024. When the Hoka Hey called to
me in 2022 as a spectator, I knew it was something bigger than just a
ride, and I had to be part of it. After crossing that finish line in
2024, I knew I had to come back in 2026.

I
ride for a cause greater than myself — Mile Monsters Inc — and for our
heroes battling Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. Riding with purpose changes
everything. The miles mean more. The adventure means more. The finish
line means more.

I
have a deep passion for motorcycles and have been riding since I was a
kid thanks to my Dad who always ensured we had bikes and go fast stuff.
Behind the bars of my bike is where I spend time talking to God, finding
myself, and reconnecting with the part of me that only the open road
can bring out. The Hoka Hey is good for the soul. It pushes me to grow,
to heal, and to become a better man.
I’m
a proud father of three incredible adult children — Payton, Allison,
and Jax — who have grown into amazing human beings. My awesome wife Toni
supports all my craziness and keeps me grounded in the things that
truly matter and is my most favorite person on the planet and best
friend. This year has already blessed us in a big way as we became
first-time grandparents. On February 24th, our son Payton and our
wonderful daughter-in-law Shelby gave us the greatest gift — our
beautiful granddaughter.

When
I toe the line in 2026, I won’t just be riding for myself. I’ll be
riding for my family and for our Heroes fighting Duchenne Muscular
Dystrophy. for every mile that heals the soul, and for every lesson the
road still has to teach me.
I look forward to seeing my Hoka Hey brothers and sisters at the starting line — and again at the finish line in Woodstock.
Hoka Hey!
