Ep 17: The Bullitt Bike Fest

-The Colonel in Your Corner with Karl Truman Episode 017 Jason Elmore and Eddie Carey
I am Jason Elmore! I am co-founder of Bullitt Bike fest. I work in the IT field. I have been with my wife Sonja for 15 years and we married in 2016. Last year we adopted 5 children. Life is full of adventure and chaos but we are blessed! I have lived in Bullitt County since 2009 and love it here! I met my co-founder Eddie Carey when I moved here. I love putting on the Bullitt Bike fest event and bringing people from near and far together that love bikes. I have been riding since 2006.
I am Eddie Carey. I am co-founder of Bullitt Bike fest along with Jason Elmore. I have been married to Michelle Carey for 17 years and together for 21 years. I work for Fed Ex Freight and have been there for 14 years. I was born and raised in Bullitt County. I have been an avid biker since 2008. Michelle and I love going on bike runs or just going out to ride.
We met as neighbors and quickly became best friends. Eddie was even Best Man in my wedding in 2016. Bike Fest came about with he and I sitting in my garage throwing darts, drinking beer and talking about doing our own bike fest. We started putting ideas on paper and with help from our wives, family, and friends the dream was born. This will be our third year. Each year we are learning, adding and improving!
We host Bike Nights at Cabbana Bar and Grill in Shepherdsville every Monday from 6 p.m. – 9 p.m. 
We are also branching out and hosting a Bike Show on June 18, at Cabbana’s Bar and Grill and this event is for all ages. Come by and see us for a fun family event!
