PGR - Gilroy '13 Memorial Day Parade

Pics are top to bottom, text for a pic is under it, click on a pic for a larger pic

PGR was once again invited to participate in Gilroy' Memorial Parade and it was an honor to be there.  Small town atmosphere and we all have fun!






I arrived last, and that is where I like to be.  Nice turnout, I'll guess 16 scoots.




Better shot of our group.




We were first off in the parade and the rest were behind us.




Nice ol' '63 Lincoln with the suicide doors.




Nice Caddy...




Guess something happened to the rest, I'll call him hamburger for short but not for long...  




Mr Garlic, Cliff knows him.  Someone asked him why he did it, "I get a ton of hugs" was the response..






Folks lined up for pics wherever he went.


About 15 minutes before we start the parade, everyone gets into position.  Those behind me...





Those in front.  We'll make a right turn on 10th st and we're on our way!




Cliff and Squeezer's flag van.




We were to line our flag bikes in front of the Honor list of home town Hero's with the rest behind them and escort them during the parade.




This was our parade fly-over... NOT!  




Here they come,  round 1...






Round 2.. 






And then break off in the Missing Man formation.  Let the Parade Begin!!!!

This marks the parade start, and off we go!   Riding in a parade is difficult and very much a fun thing to do, and all appreciate it.

Honked my horn, I have very unimpressive stock pipes, but a 139 db air horn!  Lots of waves and of course waved at as many children as I could.

Thanks to our Ride Captain Mark Z for leading and organizing the parade!
