Mission Statement
'The Patriot Guard Riders is a diverse amalgamation of riders from across the nation. We have one thing in common besides motorcycles. We have an unwavering respect for those who risk their very lives for America’s freedom and security. If you share this respect, please join us.
We don’t care what you ride, what your political views are, or whether you’re a "hawk" or a "dove". It is not a requirement that you be a veteran. It doesn't matter where you’re from or what your income is. You don’t even have to ride.
The only prerequisite is Respect.
Our main mission is to attend the funeral services of fallen American heroes as invited guests of the family.
Each mission we undertake has two basic objectives.
1. Show our sincere respect for our fallen heroes, their families, and their communities.
2. Shield the mourning family and friends from interruptions created by any protestor or group of protestors.
We accomplish the latter through strictly legal
and non-violent means.
Whether it is for a Fallen Heroes funeral service,
or for a:
WELCOME HOME to our military
The MT PGR is available when the family contacts the PGR to request their presence.
Sadly, but with extreme honor:
The MT PGR has served as a part of some of the funerals for our military fallen in the last several years.
