On Sunday August 18th members travelled to the East Brandywine Fire Company to register for the annual Ryan and Robbie Miller Memorial Ride.
Despite the rain forecast around 40 bikes registered for the ride. The ride went through beautiful western Chester County to Kennett where Robbie and Ryan are buried, after leaving the cemetery the ride head towards Downingtown passing the West Bradford Fire Company were the boys were active. Despite the forecast we ran into no ran and Evan had a few peaks of sun throughout the ride.
Robbie and Ryan Miller were both killed riding motorcycle a little over a year apart in 2013-2014, both were active firefighters in West Bradford, Goodwill, and East Brandywine.
Each year they honer them with a ride and dine and donate, proceeds from this are given to students of the Downingtown School District with scholarships in the boys names. |
