annual ride brought in more than the previous four years combined. I went to the ride yesterday and forgot to take the camera :confused: . 75 mile loop through a couple towns with a stop in one park to pick up a few riders from there. the number I was told left the original park was 1037, picking up around 3-400 along the way and the other park stop. upon returning to the original starting spot, I was told the line was back 10 miles just now entering a small town east of kokomo. seen many patriotic people along the way and a few mad they had to sit and wait. the main roads were blocked by local law and ema personel, with a few riders sliding in front of the small roads along the way. you did not have to support the war to support the troops and that showed. local bricklayer I know son's funeral was sat, I think that brought out more than the weather. :thumbsup: I will try and post it early next year for anyone to attend. they try and run it toward the end of april. it was pouring rain last year and only 500 showed and many bailed before the first 25 miles.
