Rich Rendon thinks he was born decades too late.

“I should’ve been around in the ’50s, when hot rodding and cruising were the main things,” Rich says.

I think he was born at just the right time – to help Family Guidance and Outreach Center, an organization that strengthens families in order to prevent child abuse.

It was Rich’s idea to turn the center’s annual fundraiser party into a daylong motorcycle rally and car show. This first year that happened, the Blue Ribbon Rally made $25,000 more than the previous year.

Rich admits his involvement began as a way to impress his girlfriend at the time. Must’ve worked; they’ve been married four years. Why he continues: “To help kids. Help kids live. Help families understand what they’re supposed to be doing and not supposed to be doing.”

And this hard-working, fun-loving salesman will do just about anything for the cause, including put on a skirt to ride his 2007 Harley-Davidson Softail Springer.

He says the best part of wearing a skirt is that he has aligned himself with some of the greats: Jesus, the Romans and William Wallace all wore some type of skirt or dress. Now, so has Rich Rendon!
