From what I’ve heard: The ride to start rolling at 11am today from the Ft. Washington, MD Harley-Davidson dealership.

I just heard on the traffic news that a group of riders are on their way north on I-95 from Stafford County, VA to DC for the Ride. WTOP news radio 103.5 reported last night that 2,000 riders were expected to participate.

In that group or the whole rally?

Good site,thanks. I found this but no times for when they will start to show up so I can start scanning the cams.

Two Million Bikers Ride
In a response to the Million Muslim March taking place on September 11, thousands of motorcyclists are converging on Washington D.C. to pay their respects to the victims, heroes, survivors and the dead.
They did not receive a permit to have traffic blocked off so they will be riding through the streets in what could turn out to be an all day event.
Their exact route is being kept secret over security concerns according to the events Facebook page but by following the event on twitter @2millbikers2DC the route may be release so spectators can cheer the riders on and show their support.

According to the news story it was the size of the group that is expected to participate. Here is the link to the story: http://www.wtop.com/109/3447858/Permits-denied-but-bikers-to-ride-in-DC

I’ve followed this as it is on my way to work. No problem with traffic when I was on the road in the area shortly after 6am.

Yeah i’ve heard the MSM reporting much lower numbers of rider than 2M probably to downplay their significance and impact. Won’t they crap in their pants if there really are 2M bikes there?

BTW The American Muslim Political Action Committee is hosting its Million American March against Fear between 13th and 14th streets from noon to 4 p.m.

Thats the MSM following their directives from the WH to downplay their significance by teporting much lower numbers than the reality. It was to be expected really.

T1b— I don’t know what cameras show Northern, VA.

JSanders— The facebook ralley page and news story said the ride starts at 11am. Opening ceremonies begin at 8am, with several other things going on with one at 10am.

And, of course, they will play up the fact that there weren’t 2 million bikers there, while ignoring the fact that the Muslim turnout was way less than a million.

That’s exciting!

Rolling Thunder usually has between 300,000 and half a million, and it’s overwhelming!

We just had the every 5 year Harley rally in Milwaukee a couple weeks ago. Thousands and thousands of bikes! I hope many of them are in DC right now.
