Join us to visit the National D-Day Memorial on Day 8 of the 2008 Honor & Remember Ride





The New River Valley Chapter of the Southern Cruisers Riding Club will escort Honor & Remember Ride participants from our overnight stop in Roanoke, VA to the National D-Day Memorial at 8:00 AM on Saturday, June 21. Estimated time of arrival in Bedford, VA is 8:30 AM.

The D-Day Memorial has waived the extra charge normally required to open the Memorial outside of regular operating hours so that we can tour the site early in order to stay on schedule for the remainder of the day. There will be a $5 per person admission charge. The National D-Day Memorial Foundation is a non-profit organization that relies on donations to sustain its operations.

Following our visit to the Memorial, SCRC Riders will lead us down the Blue Ridge Parkway to the Station's Inn Motorcycle Resort in Laurel Springs, NC where we will take a brief break before continuing along the Parkway to our overnight stop in Asheville, NC.

Motorcycles and passenger vehicles are welcome to accompany us from Roanoke (Econo Lodge - Civic Center, 308 Orange Avenue NW, Roanoke, VA 24016), meet us at the D-Day Memorial in Bedford, or join us along the way. No registration is required.
