A nice note from Gary…

So I’m over here in Ankara, wide awake at 3:30 in the morning, and I received this nice note from our good buddy Gary…

Hi Joe!

Last November at the Progressive International Motorcycle Show in Sacramento I signed up to participate in the 2016 Tour Of Honor Ride, an organization that donates to several military and first responder charities.  This year’s charities include the Fisher House Foundation, Operation Comfort Warriors, and The Fallen Heroes (Police & Fire).  All profits after expenses will be divided equally amongst these three.

The TOH Ride consists of visiting several chosen Military/First Responder type memorials throughout the states.   Each participant is assigned a Rider Number Flag, which is to be photographed with your bike at each site visited.  I haven’t been active in my site visitations up until recently where I finally visited my first site, the Clarence “Bud” Anderson-Triple Ace memorial in Auburn, CA.

There are 507 Riders participating this year.  In scanning through the 2016 TOH Riders list, I was surprised to see I am the only Cyclone RX3 motorcycle rider.   I hope to see more RX3ers sign up in future events as I’m certain we have a bunch of prior/current Military, current/retired First Responders, and diehard Supporters amongst us.  What better way to enjoy the RX3 ride experience by helping out a worthwhile organization.
