Why do we do this ride??
We had completed the Patriots Ride a few hours
ago and a friend asked me
why I did it. I was a bit taken aback,
wondering why someone would ask such
a question. Wondering did people think this was
for self gratification or what??
But after numerous thoughts as to the motive of
the question
I felt they merely wanted to know why we did
this.
It seems so obvious why, that I wonder how
someone could ask such a question.
But I will try.
We do this to honor all the victims and heroes
of 9/11, and all our
friends who defend our right and place to be
since that time.
In our way we should wave our flags and let the
community know we
are 100% behind our Fire, Police Departments and
all our Military Services
who defend our rights to freedom.
And therefore our ride helps to heal us and
those who see us waving
our national colors as we ride in memoriam to our
honorees.
And.... it is the right thing to do.
Thank all of you for joining me. Joe Pelley
