Harley pipes sounds good. What is the name of the group of riders?

They are known as the “Patriot Guard Riders” or simply PGR. Most are Veterans or supporters of Veterans who quickly became disgusted with the antics of the Westboro Baptist Church and the Phelps’ in dishonoring the funerals of our military personnel.

I’ve ridden a few times with them here in NC. It is a non-violent method of keeping these idiots at bay and away from the families during the time of closure. Usually, when the Phelps’ group see/hear the bikes and see the bikers, they quickly beat a path of retreat!

Patriot Guard Riders...and I’ll just bet that they are well aware of this one.
