Brotherhood Ride- Never Forget 2021

Posted on September 2, 2021


We are coming to your town!

We will be riding through Marlin on Monday Sept 6th arriving at approximately 2pm-4pm. We are planning on riding into town from the south on 6 and headed out north on Hwy 6.

 

The Texas Brotherhood Ride consists of Firefighters, Police Officers and EMS personnel who ride bicycles to honor emergency responders who died in the line of duty. Our mission is to provide emotional and financial support to their families and co-workers.

This year’s event will be unlike any in the past – we will be honoring all First Responders who paid the ultimate sacrifice in Texas last year. We will begin our journey in Houston Texas and ride to the Fallen Fire Fighter Memorial in Colorado Springs. Traveling over 1000 miles, averaging 80-100 miles each day, we intend to bring awareness to and encourage continued support for all First Responders.
