A memorial motorcycle procession to mark the 10th anniversary of 9-11 will start at Richmonds River Rock Casino.
The 9-11 Memorial Ride and Remembrance Service will glide out of the casino parking lot on Sunday, Sept. 11 at 8 a.m.
The casino will be hosting participants with a special room rate and a complimentary breakfast.
This years ride will feature attendees representing New Yorks emergency services and the remembrance service will feature a fly-by, courtesy of the Canadian Forces.
The Vancouver Police Motorcycle Drill Team will be marshalling all participants at the River Rock at 7 a.m. on the day.
The escorted procession will proceed through Richmond, onto Highway 99 south and continue to Peace Arch Park at the Peace Arch border crossing. The service is scheduled to coincide with the timing of the historic events of the day with a fly-by to mark the moment.
After the service, there will be an informal gathering for donuts, coffee, cigars, and camaraderie at the Peace Arch Park pavilion.
Although the ride focus is on motorcyclists, there will also be a number of emergency services vehicles, vintage emergency vehicles, and others participating.
