For the last several years, hundreds of motorcycles have lined the parking lot of the Steele County Fairgrounds for the annual Owatonna Bike Blessing. After having to be postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, this year it’s business as usual hosting the event Sunday. Patrick Gavin, one of the organizers, said the event will happen rain or shine, and they’re anticipating hundreds of atendees from all over southern Minnesota and even northern Iowa and the Twin Cities. The 26th Annual Owatonna Bike Blessing will begin at 10 a.m. in the parking lot of the Steele County Fairgrounds this Sunday, May 1, and last until noon. All are welcome to attend, even if they don’t own or ride a motorcycle.
