Country star DIERKS BENTLEY hosted a charity motorcycle ride on Saturday (18Apr15) in Texas ahead of the Academy of Country Music Awards.
The Home hitmaker rode 11 miles through the state to raise funds for several charities focusing on physically or sexually abused children, according to Billboard.com.
He says, "I think the ACM's really trying to maximise this weekend
and get as much out of it as they can.
"So you got Darius Rucker hosting the golf tournament, you got Luke
Bryan and Justin Moore hosting the archery thing, and I'm the
Harley guy. We'll help bring it all together and raise a lot of
money for charities."
Following the ride, Bentley gave a concert alongside Lee Brice,
James Otto and others.
