Started building and donating computer systems in 2001, Greg did this as he went through A+ traning, he has stated that he had to reach out and "touch" what he was learning, in this case, how to build a computer (hardware/software & O.S. applications), He put an ad in the paper that "student" was looking for old computers, well, he ended up with a lot of systems working, these were all donated to children that needed them, and up until last year, it was like 1-2 a year (just old ones friends did not need), now, a very marked increase in requests and donations and this whole organization is dedicated to fulfilling a recognizable need for todays children, children that do not have a home computer and want to attain the education available, plus we recycle all usable and non usable parts.

Patti "Parti Patti" Alley, Public Relations

 
Proudly assisting BIKERSCAP, is our good friend and local personality, Parti Patti.  She currently hosts the annual West Coast Bike Rally, the "Ugly Ride", and local bike nights at CJ's in Riverview on Wednesday.  She has recently added other local events to her resume, including Peabody's, New Tampa, and Obrien's Irish Pub of Brandon on Tuesday. 
Patti has a background in business, music and radio, which lends her talent very well to assisiting BC in fundraising and promotions.  Originally from the NE Tri-State area, she has lived in Florida for the last 20 years, with her beautiful daughter Michelle, and a household full of rescued dogs.  She dedicates a large part of her life doing fundraisers, assisiting over a dozen charites each year to raise money for such causes as the WCBR Charities, Marine Corps League, Fisher House, Children's Home Society, Bud Run, Pink Dragon Ladies, Safety Zone Advocacy, and various other personal, military and children's charities.  She enjoys travel with her boyfriend Chris, and according to her, has the best job in the world entertaining bikers, and doing some good for those less fortunate at the same time. 

Liz Justice

 
BIKERSCAP proudly welcomes Liz Justice!
Liz can often be seen as the behind the scenes set up, or ticket sales girl for the Parti Patti shows, but as Patti will tell you, she is also a priceless assistant and wonderful friend.  Most events you see Patti set up at, it was Liz's manpower and down to earth nature that "keeps Patti in check" as Patti says.  She never turns down the opportunity to help for a charitable cause and works hard to see that the event runs smoothly.  Originally from the Sacramento, CA area, Liz has been in Florida for 5 years now, and lives in the Thonotosassa area with her very special and supportive machinist man, Dan.  She also works part-time at a local florist.
