There are a 1000 things I'd rather do .... None are more important.
Dream like you will live forever.....Live like you will die tomorrow.

You do not have to be a Veteran or a motorcycle rider to attend this mission. Everyone is welcome. We encourage those who do not ride to attend in your car. If this will be your first mission go to the initial staging area and you will be briefed there by the R/C (Ride Captain).  Dress for motorcycle riding or dress casually if you are driving a cage (car).  Please ride/drive safely.

Please share your condolences with the family at this link --> https://www.patriotguard.org/showthread.php?409253
