Plan to arrive not later than 2:00 p.m. at the Funeral Home.  We will place
the flags prior to 2:30 p.m. and stand the flag line until shortly after
commencement of the funeral service at 3:30 p.m.  At that time we will
remove the flags and move to the burial site.  Large flag bikes wishing to
ride as an escort will remain with the funeral procession to escort the
family to the burial site.

 

Weather:  Mostly sunny with a high of 58 degrees.  Please hydrate early and
make sure you have plenty of water/Gatorade on hand if you are in the
escort.  As always, one of the keys to proper hydration is to start
hydrating early, the day prior to the mission is not too soon to start.  It
is, in fact, recommended by the experts.

 

Flag/water truck will be present at the Funeral Service.  

 

Please note that there is a possibility of other services in progress as we
are entering or leaving the area so please keep bike pipe/radio/etc., noise
to a minimum.  Thanks.

 

Iron Horses if you can, cages are always welcome and appreciated.  

Please remember that our mission is to stand tall, silent, and with honor
and respect for this Veteran and his family. 

 

Respectfully Submitted,

 

Bill Sides

North Texas Ride Captain
