Every effort possible is made in planning and executing the PGR Mission statement in a manner that minimizes the inherit dangers of riding a motorcycle\, including riding in groups of all sizes and any situation. While the NCPG\, and it’s riders have a remarkable safety record in the execution of our missions\, infrequently members have been injured in unforeseen accidents. In an effort to mitigate the risk of preventable accidents\, all attendees who wish to ride in a Patriot Guard motorcycle escort or ride are asked to attend the pre-mission briefing. It will include a safety briefing\, and any unique ride information known to our RCIC that may be specific to the mission. Member safety and well-being is always a principal ongoing concern\, our RCIC’s are asked to stand-down from any mission that cannot be accomplished in relative safety or unreasonable risk. This includes both rides and flag lines in inclement weather and conditions. It remains each individual PGR member’s responsibility to ride within their own comfort zone and be cognizant of their surroundings and skill limitations as well as any physical needs or limitations. If the ride and/or mission conditions present challenges beyond your skill\, comfort\, or needs you are expected to exercise good judgment in foregoing any planned participation.

While the PGR and its riders have a remarkable safety record in the execution of our missions\, infrequently members have been injured in unforeseen accidents. In an effort to mitigate the risk of preventable accidents\, all attendees who wish to ride in a Patriot Guard motorcycle escort or Honor Mission are asked to attend the pre-mission briefing. It will include a safety briefing and any unique ride information known to our Ride Captain(s) that may be specific to the mission. Member safety and well-being is always a principal ongoing concern. Our Ride Captains are asked to stand down from any mission that cannot be accomplished in relative safety or unreasonable risk. This includes both rides and flag lines in inclement weather and other conditions. It remains each individual PGR member’s responsibility to ride within their own comfort zone and be cognizant of their surroundings and skill limitations as well as any physical needs or limitations. If the ride and/or mission conditions present challenges beyond your skill\, comfort\, or needs\, you are expected to exercise good judgment in foregoing any planned participation.

All specific details and updates have been sent to members directly via their e-mail address on file.\n\nThe newly formed Buffalo Niagara Honor Flight is proud to announce that their first flight will be taking some 40+ World War II veterans down to Washington D.C. to see the WWII Memorials as well as other national war memorials. \nThe Patriot Guard Riders and other motorcycle organizations are being requested to participate like never before.

Details to follow. \nLead Ride Captain for the Day – DON HIGGINS \nABOUT THE MISSION:\nHonor Flight Buffalo began flying World War II veterans to their Washington D.C. memorials in 2009. Over the years hundreds of veterans were treated to a day unlike any other. Treated like the heroes they are – treated like “Rock Stars” everywhere they went. Smiles and memories to last them the rest of their lives. Sadly in early 2016 it was announced that Honor Flight Buffalo wouldn’t be in a position to continue these flights. \nLeatherstocking Honor Flight – Albany\, NY area – has run very successful Honor Flights and it’s leadership and volunteers reached out to the former organizers of Honor Flight Buffalo to see what could be done to make sure the great city of Buffalo would not be without an Honor Flight Hub. LHF was given their blessing to carry on the tradition of Honor Flights out of Buffalo. To that end\, under the mentor-ship of Leatherstocking Honor Flight\, a new organization in Buffalo was established to continue this wonderful experience for our area veterans. \nUnder the oversight and direction of Leatherstocking Honor Flight\, Buffalo Niagara Honor Flight was just recently established and already 40+ passionate and enthusiastic volunteers are actively engaged in breathing new life into this honor flight program. Once the necessary experience has been gained by BNHF volunteers\, LHF personnel will no longer be involved – mentor-ship will cease. By this Fall\, Buffalo Niagara Honor Flight will have organized and funded their own honor flight trip. \nThis June 11th flight will be the first of many for the new Buffalo Niagara Honor Flight and we want to make sure that these veteran heroes have the “Send-Off” and “Welcome Home” they have so richly deserved. As PGR Missions go – this is one that always puts smiles on our faces and feeds our souls. \nSee you there on June 11th.
