10th Anniversary of Some Gave All Motorcycle Ride May 2016

The 10th Annual Frazier/Mason motorcycle ride.  It was a cold rainy day.  We get there before the bikes start coming to by our shirts and make contact with the organizers who are mostly family members putting the event on.

The boys help each other and encourage each other it is not cold.
