Christmas time is special for the Carter family and the Ramblin Gamblers Motorcycle Club. Together, they help Santa deliver the Christmas spirit through the Randy Carter Memorial Christmas Ride. The Carter family created the Randy Carter Memorial Christmas Ride to honor their son and brother, Randy Carter. For years, Randy Carter dressed as Santa and along with his father and the Ramblin Gamblers Motorcycle Club delivered Christmas presents to families who were in need. Sadly, a drunk driver killed Randy in a motorcycle accident. To honor his memory, the Carter family continues his legacy through the Randy Carter Memorial Christmas Ride. This Christmas, they adopted 12 families from Watauga Elementary. On Dec. 9, a motorcycle riding Santa and his elves loaded up their motorcycles and delivered Christmas presents to Watauga Elementary families.
