PAST EVENT - Ride of the Patriots - Ride to Rolling Thunder

Each year over 3,500 bikes from the local area as well as from points across the USA and Canada joined us for the Ride of the Patriots. The bikers assemble in an orderly manner eastbound along Fairfax Boulevard (Lee Highway) starting at Patriot Harley-Davidson and then with the help of Police motor squad units from Fairfax County, the City of Fairfax and Arlington County are escorted safely to the Pentagon staging area to join 400,000 other bikers for Rolling Thunder.

The Ride of the Patriots to Rolling Thunder on Sunday begins with a parade down Fairfax Boulevard and an Opening Ceremony that brings the community and the bikers together to recognize the significance of this day. City leaders, State and Federal Delegates, the Fairfax High School Band, Fairfax City and County Fire and Police units, the Northern Virginia Firefighters Emerald Society Pipe Band & Fairfax Sheriff Deputies Coalition Pipes & Drums, the American Legion, Honor Guards, etc. have active parts in the event on Sunday morning. Spectators from the community line Fairfax Boulevard to recognize the riders and honor this Memorial Day weekend.

The Ride of the Patriots takes the message of remembrance and honor for those who gave the most for our country and our freedoms from the City of Fairfax and Fairfax County citizens on to join with many others from the USA and Canada at Rolling Thunder and we are proud to do so.

Keynote speaker will be Retired General Richard Myers, former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs.
