5/9/13 - A motorcycle ride this weekend will honor those from Livingston County who have died in Iraq and Afghanistan. Anyone who wants to take part in the Ride to Remember is asked to meet at Memories Restaurant on Old US-23 in Brighton Township at 9am this Saturday before departing at 11am on the police escorted ride that will end at the historic the courthouse in downtown Howell, where a ceremony will commence at noon. Itâs become a rather large show of support to honor and remember those who have served and died for their country. Rolling Thunder Chapter 5 member Mike McMann says the goal is to keep the community aware of whatâs going on and show local families that their loved ones are not forgotten. He tells WHMI community members are encouraged to gather and line Grand River with flags as a show of support in downtown Howell or at the historic courthouse. Since the motorcycle ride is escorted and the route runs along Grand River from Brighton into downtown Howell, traffic delays are possible between 11am and noon this Saturday. For more information call 517-518-4554 or 248-705-9194. (JM)
