In previous years, “The Ride” has always been an open gathering of riders that joined together to remember their fallen brethren . With the popularity of the event, “The Ride” has grown tremendously. Due to this, participation fees have been incorporated to cover the expenses of the event itself, as well as ensuring the safety of all participants and supporters. In honor of the 10^th Anniversary of the 9/11 tragedy, we are also offering commemorative gear. Proceeds from donations, registrations and purchases will go towards funding Southern California foundations. Your participation in this annual event, as a rider or an attendee, is a great way to remember those who have lost their lives in the 9/11 tragedy and commemorate those who continue to put their lives at risk fighting and protecting our safety, rights and freedom.
