President Trump praised a veterans advocacy group for ensuring that Rolling Thunder, a tradition that sees hundreds of thousands of motorcyclists ride through the nation's capital, continues next year and into the future
Rolling Thunder -- an annual event in which motorcyclists from across the country descend on Washington over Memorial Day weekend to honor service members killed in action, missing in action or being held as prisoners of war -- was supposed to end after the 2019 edition. Organizers said costs had skyrocketed to the point that they could no longer afford to keep it going. But American Veterans , a veterans advocacy group, announced earlier this month that it would take over the event.
"For the annual ride, motorcyclists start in the Pentagon parking lot, ride over the Arlington Memorial Bridge into Washington, circle the National Mall and end in West Potomac Park, just south of the Lincoln Memorial. The first loosely organized ride was in 1988, and by 1995 Rolling Thunder became its own entity, eventually growing to more than 90 chapters across the US and other countries.
