HACKENSACK, N.J., April 25 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Over 2,000 motorcycles
are expected to roll past New York’s “Ground Zero” on Saturday, May
10, as they participate in the “Freedom Run” motorcycle rally and
festival. Riding side-by-side, the motorcycles are anticipated to stretch for
five miles and will pay tribute to the 9/11 first responders of the FealGood
Foundation who are now gravely ill as a result of their service at the site
of the World Trade Center collapse.

Caption: FealGood Foundation”I am overwhelmed by the outpouring of love
from the motorcycle community. We are grateful for the support of Bergen Harley-Davidson,
and pledge that every dollar raised will help give dignity to a 9/11 responder
who has been forgotten by their government,” says John Feal, president
and founder of the FealGood Foundation. The nonprofit organization advocates
and raises money for the 40,000 who came from all over America and the world
to do search, recovery and clean up at Ground Zero, 70 percent of whom are now
sick or have died.

Leading the motorcycles will be NYFD Engine #343, named in honor of the 343
NYC firefighters who perished in the attacks, which will be ridden my numerous
rescue workers and first responders. The run will depart from the Hackensack
Court House, 10 Main Street, at 11:00 a.m., and travel across the George Washington
Bridge before passing the Ground Zero.

At the site, motorcyclists will pay homage to a police and fire department
color guard before proceeding through the Holland Tunnel and out to Liberty
Island. The pack arrive at Liberty State Park at roughly 1:30 and take part
in a festival of food, live music by The Rolling Bones, motorcycle high wire
thrill show, fly-over by the War Birds historic military aircraft, and more.

“This is an unprecedented event here in the New York and New Jersey area,”
says Liz DiGennaro of Bergen Harley-Davidson-Buell, sponsor of the event. “We
hope it will bring attention to the real American heroes who spent days and
months sifting through the rubble of the burning buildings looking for survivors
and bringing dignity to those who perished.”

The police-escorted run and festival are free and all models of bikes are welcome.

Since 2004, 911Truth.Org has educated the public about the suppressed realities of the September 11 attacks.

We worked with the 9/11 Families to pressure the Bush administration to convene an investigation into the deadliest attacks on US soil since Pearl Harbor. We attended many of the commission hearings and questioned commissioners and bird-dogged elected officials to get answers to the Unanswered Questions that remain so to this day.

We reported the contradictions, lies and omissions on the public record. 911Truth.Org staff have given hundreds of interviews on radio and mainstream network TV.

We cover a wide range of 9/11-related issues in publishing academic papers, original research, and opinion pieces.

We wish to thank our donors who have kept us on the web since 2004! We appreciate your continued support!

We continue to update the website to make the nearly 3000 articles easier to find, read and share. Thanks for visiting us!
