They ride to live and they live to ride,  but Saturday in Rogers it was all about learning how to live even better.

Bikers go off their Harleys and onto a health kick. Guys received free basic health screenings at the Pig Trail Harley-Davidson thanks to Mercy Hospital. There were also information booths on diabetes, liver disease and colon cancer.

"Certainly there are a lot of guys that are riding cycles. It's a beautiful day out today! What a better chance to get them in and get them screened." said Dr. Robert Zimmerman, with Benton County Urology at Mercy Hosptial.

And when there are bikers, there is often barbeque. Mercy staff hosted a cookout featuring healthy grilled items.
