Lorenzo Lamas on “Good Day LA” to Promote the “The Greatest Escape Motorcycle Ride” for Mesothelioma Research

Actor and lifelong motorcycle enthusiast Lorenzo Lamas appeared this morning on the Fox morning news show, “Good Day LA”, to promote The Greatest Escape Motorcycle Ride which will take place this Sunday, September 22 to raise money for mesothelioma research conducted by the Pacific Meso Center.

Lorenzo Lamas will be riding alongside other celebrities and dignitaries including Los Angeles County Sheriff Lee Baca and stars from the 1980s hit series CHIPS, Larry Wilcox, Robert Pine and Paul Linke. Joining them will be riders from many Southern California motorcycle clubs including Eaglerider Motorcycles, Los Angeles Young Riders, The Society of Riders and Free Riders.

The Worthington & Caron law firm is pleased to serve as the title sponsor for the inaugural event. Partners Roger Worthington and John Caron will be riding along with many of their clients and clients’ families and friends whose lives have been affected by asbestos cancer.

Whether or not you are a rider, all are invited to come out and enjoy the beautiful scenic views of the Pacific Coast Highway, starting in Marina Del Rey and ending at Malibu’s Sycamore Cove State Beach where the fun will continue with a barbeque lunch, craft beer, live music, raffle prizes and a live auction.

Bidders will have a chance to win a ride in the soon to be retired Goodyear Blimp, a two-night stay and dinner at the haunted Glen Tavern hotel, a gourmet dinner package on the Napa Valley Wine Train, dinner for four at the exclusive chef’s table at Firenze Osteria, high-end motorcycle gear and much more!
