Whether it is the solo rider on the open road.
A group ride.
The iconic imagery of the American biker is linked to independence, freedom, patriotism, and, perhaps, a bit of rebellion.
Today our young veterans are gravitating to the biker lifestyle, just as their forefathers did at the end of World War II. What began in Hollister in 1947 continues today in locales like Sturgis.
More and more clubs are being organized by the veterans and active duty military, in which they share common values and the love of the open road.
Seen at rallies and events across the nation, their leathers and vests are adorned with American flags, military insignia, service ribbons, combat action ribbons, rank insignia, and patriotic statements.
Multiple generations of warriors, from Viet Nam to Iraq and Afghanistan, roll alongside one another.
The quintessential expression of American independence.
