IAFF-MG Fire Fighters Participate in 9/11 Tribute Ride

September 13, 2007 – Hundreds of IAFF Motorcycle Group (IAFF-MG) members paid special tribute in memory of the 343 FDNY fire fighters who made the ultimate sacrifice on 9/11 with the IAFF-MG 9/11 Tribute Ride ~Never Forget held in conjunction with the IAFF-MG First National Rally.

On the sixth anniversary of September 11, IAFF-MG fire fighters were greeted by the Sturgis Mayor Maury LaRue at Woodley Memorial Park. The mayor and the riders traversed more than 35 miles through the South Dakota’s Black Mountains to Rapid City, South Dakota.

Following the ride on September 12, IAFF-MG members were invited back to Sturgis for a pub crawl. Riders may also compete on September 13 in a sporting clay competition before leaving for the IAFF Fallen Fire Fighter Memorial in Colorado Springs, Colorado, to participate in the annual “Ride to Remember.”
