Welcome to our website!
After our inaugural ride across this great nation, we truly recognize the support for our troops abroad, the ongoing honor for our veterans, and the commitment of all patriots to help support the continued legacy of those who have given their lives in defense of our freedom.
We have no political affiliations, or self serving motive. Our desire is to provide education for the young of our fallen heroes, so their generation will be better stewards of their future then we have been ours.
We are humbled and honored to be a part of history, and able to give our fellow Americans in arms, education for their children, for their ultimate sacrifice. Educated people do not war. Boys make problems, men solve them. Perhaps in the future, there will be peace on earth. We can only hope, have faith, and commit ourselves to this aim.
Please join our ongoing quest! We leave mid May (check The Ride) on a 3000 mile adventure that will leave you with a lifetime of memories.
Even if you can't make the entire ride, join us on part of our journey, or at least show up at Tahoma National Cemetery, Thursday at 11:00 am, May 14th, 2009, to help start the journey off right. We count on YOUR support!
The JFF ride begins at Tahoma National cemetery and are asked to ride with us as far as they can even if its over the Cascades, or for the first night in Post Falls, Idaho, (Hey its only 300 miles you wimps) in support of our mission. 2008 we were greeted by 1200 bikes at Roadhouse cycles and Hot Rod Cafe, the first evening of our journey. As usual, the weather was in the high 70's, so it was perfect. Dennis Shipp, owner of Hauser Lake Resort, just a few minutes north of Post Falls, is providing free camping and showers for riders, so make it this coming year!
Everyone will gather at the Tahoma National Cemetery off of 256th sreet exit (HWY 18) in Kent, WA. 11:00 am sharp for flag presentation and ceremony. We had the Fort Lewis honor guard do the ceremonies, and expect them again this coming year. We start the ride across the country from there at 11:30 am.
Everyone start praying for good weather like we had last Spring, and lets make this years ride better than ever. Also, check out the Updates page for the additions in 09', they will kick tail!
We can use help from committed individuals that will donate time or money towards the Journey For Freedom Fund to help put the ride on. Call with any questions. Dan 253-221-9178
