I think that there are 2 different rides, one cross country (picking up riders as it goes) and one a "local" run. Not sure which is which.
Who cares though, both are great oppoortunities to ride with a good bunch of folks who deserve some gratitude.
Not to get too Mom-and-Apple-Pie here, but for those Americans on the forum, I hope you're all taking a minute or two out of this holiday weekend to remember its real purpose.... say a quick prayer of thanks for those that died in defense of our (and many others, I might add!) nation.
For all you non-Americans, this weekend is called "Memorial Day" in America, and it is a national holiday where we remember those who died fighting in our various wars. It is also the traditional start of summer, and it often gets obscured by baseball, cookouts, and family reunions.
Anyway, it's a big deal over here.
