Remember 9.11 Motorcycle Ride Through Orange County, CA

Nearly 3000 motorcycles rumbled through Orange County today in remembrance of 9.11.01.  This incredible ride started at Cooks Corner in Trabuco Canyon, wind their way through Laguna Hills, and eventually turned north on Coast Highway and went through Newport Beach.

This incredible ride ends in Long Beach, and is a commemorative event. It was especially heartfelt today, being the 10 year anniversary of that incredible day which changed America forever.

People line the streets, and cheer them on as they go past. So many had American flags and were so appreciative of the support.

Many of us in Newport Shores lined the streets on Coast Highway with our own American flags and cameras in hand to take lots of photos of this event. The motorcycle rider below did a wheelie for the spectators!

So many were cheering and supporting the motorcycle riders as they passed. And everyone loved the patriotism with their American Flags!

God Bless America - and may there never be another event such as 9.11 again. Originally posted at NewportBeachRealEstateCafe.com

Wow, that is an amazing number of riders and I do have to say that would be impressive to watch as they rode by. What great pictures and video! I know they wouldn't ever be able to compete with actually being there though.
