We don’t care what you ride or if you ride, what your political views are, or whether you’re a hawk or a dove. It is not a requirement that you be a veteran. It doesn't matter where you’re from or what your income is; you don’t even have to ride. The only prerequisite is Respect. We have an unwavering respect for those who risk their very lives for America’s freedom and security. If you share this respect, please join us. Of course, cages are always welcome.

At your service,
Scott Knudsen

It was another great homecoming!! What a rush it is when the plane comes in and the doors open for the troops to come out. It doesn't get better than that!! Thank you to all the soldiers and their families for their huge sacrifice to serve. And thank you to all of our PGR family who did the prep work for today for the PGR. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone.
