Default Memorial Day

Hey Fellas, since i know there are alot of Active Duty/prior service members that are on this forum, and in honor of memorial day, I just want to say Thank You to all my brothers and sisters that have served and/or are currently serving. Hopefully you can enjoy the day on 2 wheels, with friends or family (better yet on 2 wheels with friends and family)...

Thanks Guys

Jason

One of the greatest things we can do is to acknowledge those that protect us.

THANK YOU ALL for what you do, we are forever in your debt!!

Memorial Day is a day to remember, honor, and cherish our brothers and sisters who never made it home to be thanked.

Veterans Day is a day to honor all veterans, past and present.



Either way, one day out of a calendar year is no where near the respect that should be owed to service members, veterans, POW/MIA, and WIA/KIA.


I would like to wish everyone a happy Memorial Day. Enjoy the day, seize the moment, and ride safe.
