Chris Gibbany joins as Ambassador of Arkansas

Biker Lives Matter welcomes Chris Gibbany as Ambassador of Arkansas. A motorcycle enthusiast and journalist, riding since the age of 16. Thank you Chris for helping Biker Lives Matter make a difference!

My name is Chris and I live in Harrison, Arkansas. For the last 12 years, I have dedicated my life to volunteering to causes I am passionate about. I decided years ago to use my passions to help others by volunteering or through charity. For over 20 years I was a hedgehog breeder, and I used the proceeds to fund the only IHA (International Hedgehog Association) and HWS (Hedgehog Welfare Society) approved rescue in Arkansas. I was a member of both organizations and the HBA (Hedgehog Breeders Association) for years and even served as the Health and Education officer.
When I was an extreme couponer, I donated almost all of my couponing freebies to the soldiers, public schools, police departments, domestic violence shelters, animal shelters, tattoo artists, and just random people I met coming out of the stores or while in the checkout line. In 2009, I started having couponing parties and organizing coupon trains to get coupons into the hands of more people who could use them. I had a blog teaching people how to coupon and turned down an appearance on ABC Nightline News in 2010 about couponing. The segment was so popular that the TV series “Extreme Couponing” was born in April of 2011!
I spent 10 years as a wedding photographer; I’ve worked in a body shop, a photo lab, and an attorney’s office. I love doing anything involving motorsports; from drag racing, riding enduros, hot-rodding my ‘73 Dodge Challenger to dirt-roading Baja bugs; but my passion is riding and building vintage Harleys. My husband and I host many events within the motorcycle and car community for like-minded individuals. We started a Camaro Club in 2005, and I served as president the entire time. I served for five years as the Arkansas Representative for the Worldwide Camaro Club and later spent 12 years as the rep for the Chevy Classics Club. During this time, I was one of only five women representatives. I am the official ambassador for motorcycle tourism for the entire state of Arkansas; the Arkansas representative for the Global Women Who ride project since 2015 and just recently resigned as a CoolRidesOnline (CRO) Champ after four years so I could pursue other opportunities.

I am a motorcycle enthusiast and moto-journalist who has been riding motorcycles since I was 16; learning to ride before I learned to drive. Although my love is motorcycles and cars, I believe each person can use their God-given passions to better the world. As the Arkansas Ambassador for BIKER LIVES MATTER, I intend to use my media connections to help spread awareness of this important issue. I am an activist who wants to evoke change and will strive to solve this social problem that is killing thousands of people a year! I give 110% to anything I do and BIKER LIVES MATTER will be no exception. Please support this cause!
Be Passionate and Make a Difference
