ABOUT THE MISSION:
Ladies and Gentlemen of the Patriot Guard Riders, we have been invited by the NW Fire Velo fire fighters and the Gary Sinise Foundation to stand a flag line at an important mission to raise support for fallen heroes – first responders, the men and women of the US Armed Services, and the families who have paid the ultimate sacrifice in service to our nation. The NW Fire Velo team will be pedaling once again to raise money for the R.I.S.E. program. Our riders will travel from Seattle to Colorado Springs, arriving on September 21st to honor our fallen firefighters at the annual International Association of Fire Fighters, Fallen Firefighter Memorial. The 20-day cycling event starting August 29th covers over 1,600 miles, climbs over 70,000 feet, and visits fire departments in five different states.
