Are you heading to the one at the "The Wall" in DC?

Last year was the first one I've missed in 16 years.
(Contractor set up delivery and set up for my house on that weekend after weather delays)
I won't miss it again.

There's nothing like spending Memorial Day Sunday with 300,000 buddies all riding to pay respects for those who gave all.

Yes, it is the ride to the wall. cbrahs, its on memorial day weekend in washington, d.c. this is only my second time to go, but it is just amazing. we usually head up on thursday or friday with friends, and just hang out, drink many beers lol, go to the harley dealr up there and get our shirts, and just see the sites. this time im gonna take half a day and see my brothers buried in arlington. that place alone just about takes your breath away!! and the parade; wow!! riding through it, pipes a blastin', and all the vets and people chearing you on, its giving me goose bumps as i type it. we have a friend that i was in iraq with in 2006, whos goin with us again. just walkin to the wall and watchin them pay their respects to their brothers, is just so awe inspiring.
