9/11 Ride

I've been busy busy with projects these past few days (which I haven't quite finished up, but you can be sure I'll share 'em when I do!) but I want to share a few pictures from the 9/11 Memorial ride that came through Leesburg last Friday.

You can find out more about the ride, and America's 911 Foundation here.



It was touching to see this show of patriotism- to see all those who were participating in the ride and all those who came out to support.



Charly watching as more than 1,700 bikers pass
 As we watched the bikers pass, I couldn't help but think how crazy it is that Charly will never know the pre-9/11 America, and that she will never have a recollection of that day, how it impacted all of us. I'm grateful that some people still remember, and that they help us to do the same.

And just for funsies, I thought I'd share a few of the more... ahem... unique bikes we saw.
