Washington, DC--Memorial Day in the United States is dedicated to those men and women who died fighting for our country. It is also considered the traditional beginning of summer.
Each year during Memorial Day Weekend, tens of thousands of veterans ride their motorcycles to Washington, DC, for Rolling Thunder. The event and the organization is dedicated to prisoners of war and those who are still "MIA" or Missing in Action in the Vietnam War. The bikers ride from Arlington National Cemetery to the Vietnam War Memorial.

Impressive! One usually don't think this of bikers...
I've said it before and I'll say it again. This is one of my favourite blogs for the consistently high quality of the photography, Luis. Lovely image.
A wonderful tribute Luis.

Beautiful photo! The b&w makes it feel more powerful.
My wife and I got to experience this rolling thunder 20 years ago today as we stood on a Constitution Ave. street corner. Wonderful tradition ... and photo!
nice! i´m off to look at more of your work. :)
Posso soltanto dire una cosa!!!
Favolosa!
Nice one Luis.Hope you'll be putting on the rest of them soon. I know you've got more for us.Might be time for you to consider a bigger ride and if it has to be a scooter how about a Piaggio Gilera 800. That baby puts 75 horses under your butt and tops out over 100 mph.You'd love it.
Muy buenas la foto del desfile,Luis¡¡¡
Muy buena!
I can hear them!
A picture to be heard indeed.
Menuda concentracion motera. Tipica fotografia americana. Buen BYN. Un saludo.
