Hey everyone, Jon Santos here. This year’s 2026 Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge will be my second. When I first learned about Hoka Hey in 2018, I knew that I had to try it. I completed the 2020 Hoka Hey in 24th place and made it to the end of the road party with a couple of days to spare. I am proud of my achievement. I enjoyed my journey and the challenge that it gave me. I got to meet a lot of new people, and some I now consider family. I am looking forward to this year’s ride. I am excited to reconnect with my fellow riders, nature, and this year’s journey wherever it may take us.
My biggest take away from the 2020 challenge was that no matter how prepared you are, you are not.
I do as many long-distance rides as I can but sometimes work gets in the way. I also try to get out and explore the country with my wife Carrie on the bike. Last year was her 1st 1000 miler.
We have 4 children and 2 grandchildren, and they all know how to ride and enjoy it. I love to ride and I am glad that I can share my love of riding with my family and friends.
This year, I am riding for the Cure Alzheimer’s Fund. https://give.curealz.org/fundraiser/6514561
Thanks, and I am looking forward to seeing everyone out there!
