You bet you can drive your truck or car, that's called "Caging" it. Welcome to the PGR. I tried replying to your email to me but the mailer program sent it back as undeliverable. At the top of this thread is a box you can check to be notified if anyone posts to this tread. Check that box and you will be kept up to speed on this mission. Make it a great day!
To those reading..."Can the address be posted for this mission?" We will be coming up from PDX. |

| Entiat, there wil be several cages (trucks, cars) headin to Pasco from all directions. I suggest you go onto Washington state's PGR thread, check who's the ride captain for your area and let him/her know you'll be joining them. Its quite possible you'd be asked to be a support vehicle - a very necessary Item" if you will. See you Sunday and have a safe ride. |

If anyone from Western WA is heading over early on Saturday to overnight it in Pasco, there are two of us leaving from the Issaquah area on Saturday morning. We are trailering the bikes over (weather makes it look necessary, darn it!). Anyone care to caravan with us?
Rest easy Marine, your mission is complete. Semper Fi! |

Newbie cager here. Have no bike, but wish to honor the memory of Sgt Pfister. My brother is currently deployed overseas with the US Army.
I am in the Tri-Cities and would like to offer a ride to anyone who cannot get to the service on their own. I'll travel as far as Yakima to the NW or Walla Walla to the SE on Sunday morning.
Address of the TRAC is 6600 Burden Blvd, Pasco, WA
Best regards,

I love it when I can say that wild horses cannot keep me from attending a mission! As it turns out, I (and possibly Pipey) will be attending this mission. Will be meeting at the Flying J to ride out with Jim Jensen on Sunday morning. Understand that we should be there around 0530 ish...will be staying warm in the Bammobile (just do not think she can make the trip that far)....may also bring coffee if there is enough of a need for it! Will have all of the extra flags with us in Jim's Cage. Have a Large Marine Corps flag as well.
Thank you all for supporting this mission! You do amaze me and I am humbled by your dedication to the Right thing to do! |

The bad news is: my truck is full, and can no longer offer my vehicle as a ride.
The good news is: My truck is still available for a support vehicle. Coffee, flag carry, fuel....whatever needed.

You are truly an American hero and the world in which we live is a safer place because of your commitment to freedom. We will now proudly stand for you with honor, dignity, and respect. We pray that you will now rest peacefully in the arms of God. My prayers are with you during this time of loss.

West Portland/Beaverton/Hillsboro Riders and Cagers:
Boomer and I will be meeting at Paradise HD in Tigard at 0515 Sunday for this Mission with KSU at 0530. This should easily put us at the Flying J in Troutdale (exit 17) by 0615 to meet the group there.
Anyone who would like to Ride or Cage with us is welcome! If you can, please let me know you are going to be there. Weather looks good so far:
Sunday...Mostly cloudy. Patchy fog in the morning. A chance of rain in the afternoon. Highs 55 to 60. South wind 5 to 10 mph shifting to the east in the afternoon.
Either way, ride safe!!

| Father in Heaven, I ask for journey mercy for all those who will be riding/driving to Pasco for this mission. Go before us and keep us alert to the hazaerds of the road and keep those on the road alert ot us. Extend your love and grace and mercy to all who will be in attendance. Grant a spirit of nobility and patience to us as we stand for those who stood for us. Give a mute and dumb spirit to those who would by word or deed intend to disrupt or show any disrespect to our loved one. Give to the family and friends and loved ones of the fallen a peace that surpasses understanding. |
