I recently joined the group called Wariors Watch, ( thanks to my good friend John telling me about it), that have chapters throughout the US. They ride events that honor the branches of the military, fallen hero's and those that made it home. Families can ask if a local group will honor their family memeber by riding to a gathering, or they will participate in a local event.
Well worth looking up the site. There are events all over the country that cyclist can participate in.
I am contemplating my first ride this Wednesday, 9/11/2013. Yes to honor those we lost on 9/11. It's in Newtown Pa at a memorial called "The Garden Of Reflection". Guess I'm a bit nervous since it will be my first event participation and I'm such a rookie, only two weeks on the trike.
