Every year tens of thousands of Americans pass one American flag around the country in honor of our Armed Forces members - Past, Present, and Fallen. This is the Patriot Tour and it’s run by a Federally recognized nonprofit org. called “The Nation of Patriots” - www.nationofpatriots.org

Awesome write up from the Tribune in Medford, OR

We were just able to obtain these pictures from the launch of the 2011 Patriot Tour.  Founder of the Nation of Patriots - Bill Sherer, rides the flag from Wisconsin HD to Woodstock HD in IL to pass it to Dave Hume, the Illinois Flag Bearer 2 years in a row!! 

The last few pics are of the flag arriving via Dave and his riders from IL in Elkhart IN rolling into Hoosier HD. Looking good Dave!

Check out these professional photos from Pensacola Harley-Davidson!  These guys are the masters of formation when it comes to proud pictures like these!  Don’t believe me, check out their picture from last year by clicking HERE

Thanks a lot Pensacola, it is an absolute honor to have you on board with the Patriot Tour!!

My Simi Valley CA Chapter particpated in the California tour; we passed the flag to Santa Maria HOG Chapter. We paid a visit to Vandenberg AFB where they greeted us at the visitor center. It was an amazing experience. Will you be posting photos from that, or do you need us to send you photos to post?

These photos are from Jim Banakus out of Santa Maria Harley-Davidson in California.  For the second consecutive year Jim and his crew have really gone all out and completely grasped the concept of what the Patriot Tour really is.  They are proud Patriots and we’re extremely honored to be able to work with them.

Please read Jim’s synopsis of the their entire leg of the 2011 Patriot Tour below.

Some pictures in from Tina Reeves of Santa Fe Harley-Davidson in Albuquerque, NM.  Tina and her riders are tasked with the longest ride on the Patriot Tour, but nonetheless accept this mission with the utmost pride!  Nice job guys!  Your country is proud!   

These just in from Terry Proctor and the Roswell leg of the Patriot Tour at Champion Harley-Davidson and High Plans Harley-Davidson.  Nice pictures Terry, hope to see you in September again!!

These are official Proclamations from the Mayor of Albuquerque NM and the Governor of NM stating that July 22nd and July 23rd are hereby declared Nation of Patriots Day!

This is the handy work of Tina Reeves who is quite frankly…AWESOME!  She’s been pumping up the Patriot Tour all over the state of NM, all over Facebook, and obviously all over the “official” scene!  Tina even started her own E-magazine - American Woman Riders - which serves to celebrate woman motorcycle riders all over the world!  Check out her site at www.americanwomanriders.com

THIS JUST IN FROM BATON ROUGE!!!  We have yet another video from the events that took place in Baton Rouge over the weekend of July 8th & 9th.  This video was shot and aired by LA Rider TV.  Very Cool!  Thanks LA Rider!
