Lake of the Ozarks Bikefest 2026: Hertz, Velocity, and the Sound of the Ride

The Lake of the Ozarks Bikefest is back for its 20th year, and from September 15-20, thousands of riders will roll into Osage Beach and Lake Ozark, Missouri for six days of scenic rides, live music, and the kind of biker-friendly hospitality the Lake is known for. With more than 300 biker-friendly bars, restaurants, and stops spread across the water, Bikefest has grown into one of the Midwest's biggest motorcycle rallies - and this year, Hertz and Velocity are riding right alongside it.

Sound is part of the ride. Whether it's cruising the Bagnell Dam Strip or pulling into a lakeside stop for the night, riders know that a system built for the open road makes every mile better. That's where Hertz and Velocity come in - both brands built for riders who expect their sound to keep up with their bike, no matter how far they roll.

This year, we're teaming up with two dealers who know the Lake and know sound: Mobile Sound Systems and Creative Audio. Both will be on hand throughout Bikefest week, giving riders a chance to see the gear in person, ask questions, and hear the difference for themselves.

If you're heading to the Lake this September, stop by and say hello. Whether you're looking to upgrade your setup before your next long ride or just want to see what's new from Hertz and Velocity, our dealer partners will be ready to help.

Ride safe, ride loud (in the best way), and we'll see you at the Lake.
