Motorcycle ride salutes soldiers, law enforcement
HADDON TWP. —
The sound of freedom can take many forms.
Whether it is the sound of a military jet engine roaring
across the sky, a young girl singing "God Bless America" or
the roar of hundreds of Harley-Davidsons tearing down the
highway, it's a noise that can't quite be classified.
Those taking part in the 5th Annual Armed Forces Freedom
Ride experienced all three Sunday in a gesture saluting
American soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines as well as
those who commit their lives to law enforcement.
For this
particular ride you have a lot of law enforcement, military
and firefighters participating but this one is for anyone
that loves the sport's freedom," Sgt. First Class Ray Bunn
said. "That's what it means to me."
Bunn, originally from Boyertown, Pa., but stationed at Joint
Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, was one of nearly 1,000
motorcyclists who made the 25-mile trip with his wife Tracey
on his Harley Sportster XL 1200 Custom.
An activated
reservist, Bunn first got into riding back in 2003 after
returning from Iraq. Bunn was one of a handful of those in
uniform, wearing a clean set of standard issue digital
camouflage fatigues....click
