KSU is scheduled for 9:30 a.m. It is supposed to rain, but hopefully that will hold off until the afternoon. The funds raised by this event help support the Legacy Fund, a scholarship for children of the fallen. The ride is organized by the American Legion Riders, headed up by Legion rider and co-founder of the event, Stan Mauldin. The public is reminded that a good way to thank the Veterans for their service is to get out and line the route to thank the riders as they pass.
Twenty years ago when the event first began, 47 riders set out in support of veterans and the families of the fallen. In 2017, more than 1,000 left from the American Legion Post 233 in Loganville. The only larger ride in the country is in Washington DC. For more info on the ride click here.
