European Top Fuel champion Urs Erbacher is extremely anxious to return to the United States and compete in the final two 
races
of the 2008 POWERade Series. But before the four-time FIA champ left
his native Switzerland, he helped raise another $8,500 for children
with heart issues through his annual Days of Steel motorycle ride.
Erbacher's world renowned motorcycle shop, Fat Attack Custom Bikes in Arlesheim, Switzerland, helped start Days of Steel five years ago as a fun way to raise money for Kinderherzen, a foundation that pays for ailing children from third world countries to be flown to University Clinic-Freiburg in Germany, for life-saving heart operations.

Each year, Erbacher, many of his crew personel, friends, and the entire TriRhena Chapter of Harley Riders from Germany, France, and Switzerland, organize this fun ride to Europa Park in Freiburg, Germany, which is one of the continent's largest amusement parks.
More than 100 bikers filled the roadways this year, parading through the triborder area much to the delight of thousands of spectators that cheered them along the way. Numerous civic groups, clubs, and associations participated and donated time and money to the effort.
On Oct. 12, TriRhena Chapter President Ismael Lopez joined Erbacher to present a check in the amount of 6,500 Euros ($8,500) to Kinderherzen representatives in front of the Collosium Hotel at Europa Park. This amount was up considerably from the 5,000 Euros ($6,500) raised in 2007.
Next year's Days of Steel has been scheduled for June 20, 2009. More details can be found at www.DaysOfSteel.com
