OK, Ladies and men from North Alabama and Ga. I'll be at exit 11 of I-85 from 7:15 to 7:30. I'll be at the Liberty Station. I'll then travel down 85 to I-65 S . I'll stop at the first rest stop South of Montgomery if anyone coming down 65 wants to hook up. That rest stop is a few miles North of Greenville. Then boogie on down and meet the Southern group at the same place as last time. Should hit there about 11:00am.
Let show our Mississippi brothers and sister some real Al/Ga teamwork. There are no borders between Al/ Ga/Ms
So sound of and let me know if I need to meet you.

Hey reloader,
Should pull off I-10 at Tillmans corner ( I think it's a Raceway station or one of those ) about 11:00 AM Would be proud to ride in with the Florida bunch. I lived in P'cola for several years. Used to manage the Lincoln store there. We lived at Marcus Pointe Villa's. Hope to meet you.

Snap / Reloader,
Do either of you know the I-10 exit # for Tillman's Corner (looks like 15B, but want to be sure)?
I'll try to time my departure from Panama City via Hwy 331 and I-10 to meet you. |

Reloader, did you see Ruels post? Exit 17, Walmart. Kickstands up by 11:00am Looking forward to seeing you all. RC and the Ga crew. I can take four on the floor at my house. Living room, work out room, lots of room in the garage for bikes.
Folks, you read the post from his Bn CO. This is a good kid who died for our country. He asked to be laid to rest where all the good memories are. He needs a escort and real soldiers good-bye. Let's show his family what PGR is all about. Nobody has anything to do Saturday that's more important. RC is going to ride 350 miles to this and he's an old man. I expect to see Alabama and Ga and Florida show what we can do. Just keep in mind, there are no borders in Dixie. AL/Ga/Ms/Fl are one place in the PGR. Let's show this hero's family how much we really care.
I know how hard it is to loose troops Col. I lost a lot of mine in Vietnam. Just know that you have what I didn't. The PGR to send them off with respect and dignity. God bless you sir for all you do. We will see Sgt Mills off with all the splendor and honor we can muster. His last ride will be a memorable one.

RIDER DOWN - As if it isn't stressful enough already, EdBaker (MS S/C) just dropped me a quick note that he is at the hospital with his son( ( a PGR bro as well). Apparently his son was two up with his lady and got nailed by a cross-street cager. Initial reports are broken legs and/or hips. Thoughts and prayers....will keep advised.

There will be a post sent out to all Florida PGR members today. I have sent it National so they can do a mass emailing.
Scott Matheson( RC Florida) is also getting people together in the Panama City area. I believe that Florida will have a good showing for this mission.
RIP Sgt. Mills
