Default Tennessee PGR Mission 8-12

says....

This is the final Itinerary for the Patriot Guard Mission to honor Sgt. Dustin Laird, who gave all on 8/1/06.

Memphis Riders: Will be staging at Bumpus Whitten Rd Saturday 8/12 at 9:15 with kickstands up at 9:30. We will be heading out on HWY 70


It is a go; all contacts have been made.

Services are at the East Side Cemetery only, Saturday 8/12/06, at approximately 1330 hrs in Martin, TN., per the family request.

Ride Captains:
Your Lead Ride Captain for this mission is Russ Martz (Merlin), who can be reached on his cell at 731-613-0540.

Weather: The current weather forecast for Martin on 8/12/06 is partly sunny with a high of 93° with a 20% chance of rain. Dress appropriately. Bring flag poles & flags if you've got them; flags on bikes would be great. If you’re not on your bike, cars are welcome, bring all the extra flags you’ve got.

Staging Site & Time: From 1200 hrs to 1300 hrs at the OLD Wal-Mart.

Here is a link to a map to the staging area:

Departure: The departure time from the staging area to the cemetery is 1300 hrs. All bikes will present a uniform appearance as we ride from the staging area to the cemetery in a staggered formation. Anyone not able to stage should meet at East Side Cemetery. The attached link is a map of where you can find the East Side Cemetery:

I got some good intel that a group of PGR's are meeting up in Atoka,Tn. approximately 25 miles north of Memphis. They will be gathering at the BP Station on hwy 51 and departing promply 9:30am and will meet up with the other PGR's at the staging area in Martin.

Always remember:
You DO NOT have to be a member of the PGR to participate in any PGR missions.
You DO NOT have to be a Biker/Motorcyclist to participate.

To check out the PGR's website - go to www.patriotguard.org

It apprears the the Westboro Church protesters will be trying to interrupt the funeral service tomorrow.

The flier is in a PDF format, so you will need Adobe Reader to view. The flier pretty much states they will be in Martin to protest the funeral and the rest of the crap they spew!

Very moving experience. About 225 bikes and 15 cages. Everything went off well, didnt see the UG's (Westboro Folks) anywhere. Meet up with Hambone & Pit Crew when I arrived at the Walmart in Martin. After signing the waiver form, I could not find them again.

I took a couple pics and will try to get them posted soon.

A very moving experience, and one that I will forever carry with me.

Great to meet you Sat. I posted the pic of us in the Members meeting Members section.

Hope to ride with you someday under better circumstances and get to actually sit and talk with you.

Rick
