🇺🇸 NEVER FORGET — 25th Anniversary Memorial Ride 🇺🇸

Please join Red Knights NY Chapter 47 tonight for our annual 9/11 Memorial Ride. This year carries special weight — it's been 25 years. We promised to never forget, but the new generation only knows this day through textbooks, grainy videos, and social media posts. It's on us to keep that promise alive — to honor the brave men and women who gave the ultimate sacrifice for complete strangers, and those we're still losing today to illnesses from Ground Zero.

📍 Tonight's Route:
• 5:00 PM — Line-up at Millgrove Vol. Fire Dept.
• 5:30 PM — Roll out
• 6:00 PM — Ceremony at Russell's
• 7:00 PM — Proceed to Eastern Hills Wesleyan
• Finish at the Hilltop Inn and Grove

Challenge coins, memorial shirts, and raffle tickets will be available in support of the Red Knights NY47 mission.

No bike? No problem — plenty of parking at Russell's. Come stand with us.

🕯️ Never forget. 🕯️

Today, RKMC NY47 had the honor of coming together for our annual Jason Arno Memorial Ride. ❤️🖤

A day to ride. A day to remember. A day to honor a hero whose legacy continues to bring people together.

Thank you to everyone who rode with us, supported the event, and helped us keep Jason’s memory alive. The turnout, the brotherhood, and the support from our community mean more than words can say.

We ride in his memory. We carry on his legacy.
