Final packing and bike prep for our journey from GA to DC and PA for the 9/11 memorial events. So far we have 8 bikes and 11 riders. 1st stop - Harrisonburg VA for the night on Thursday, then on to Bucks County PA (Gardens of Reflection) by way of DC. Several rides and events are planned there over the weekend with the Warriors Watch Riders, along with the massive "bike night" in Lansdale PA on Saturday, which is expecting 15,000 bikes. Heading back to GA on Monday with a stop somewhere in southern VA, then home by Tuesday afternoon. Other side trips while there to include a swing up to the Naval Air Station in Lakehurst NJ, a visit to New Hope PA to see the parents of Sgt. Jennifer Hartman (killed in Iraq 11/06), and a ride with a 9/11 survivor group of bikers from north Jersey (which includes my brother, who escaped the attack on the South Tower). This will be a tremendous trip to honor and remember the heroes and victims of 9/11. While we would like to get to the ceremonies in NYC and/or Shankesville PA, there just isn't time to do it all. Working the beads tonight praying for good weather. Not looking great right now, but hopefully it will all clear out by the time we get up there. Bon voyage......

Getting everything ready for our trip with the Warriors Watch Riders to PA for the 9/11 memorial ride and services at the Gardens of Reflection in Bucks County. 5 bikes making the trip from GA with a support vehicle and trailer in tow. Leaving the 8th and returning the 13th, with stops in the Harrisonburg VA area both up and back. Not attempting to get into DC, NYC or Shankesville this trip, as they will be crazy crowded. We'll make that pilgrimage some other time. The spouse of the pilot of Flight 93 will be attending this service with us, as she did two years ago when the Gardens were dedicated. Hopefully the weather cooperates this year (it was a monsoon in '09!), but either way, it's going to be a great ride with some great folks. Wherever you go and whatever you are doing on 9/11 this year, please ride safe, and thank you for honoring the heroes and victims of this tragic day. God bless America.....

Just unvailed tonight here is the 911 Remembrance trophy for first place in the car show. Twin towers done in mirror. Very cool and one of a kind. If you guys know of someone who has a custom car and would like a chance to get in on this let them no and register on the web site. I am just so excited about being involved with so many great people and being part of a really great cause with a chance to help so many. I hope my fellow VENTURERIDERS are planning to attend because registration is limited. http://external.ak.fbcdn.net/safe_image.php?d=AQBi_augJeuT8nm7&w=90&h=90&url=http%3A%2F%2F911remembrancelasvegas.org%2Fimages%2FPCmotorcycle.jpg 911 Remembrance Motorcycle Run 911remembrancelasvegas.org The 9/11 Remembrance organization is honored to announce a special memorial - 9/11 Remembrance, Igniting The Spirit Of Unity - with events planned on September 9, 10, and 11 of 2011.

Richmond, Indiana -Thousands of motorcycles are expected to converge in downtown Richmond, IN on Saturday, April 9, 2011. These motorcycles will serve as an escort for two 22 ft. steel beams harvested from the World Trade Center in New York. The beams will be used as a focal point of Project 911 Indianapolis, a permanent memorial dedicated to those killed in the collapse of the World Trade Center, the crash of aircraft in Shanksville, PA and the Pentagon. Project 9/11 Indianapolis will become a part of the Indianapolis city landscape that includes the USS Indianapolis Memorial and the Medal of Honor Memorial, and will be dedicated on September 11, 2011, the 10th anniversary of the deadly terrorist attacks on America.
