Patriot Harley-Davidson and the Fairfax Harley Owners Group (HOG) sponsor the popular community event Ride of the Patriots.
Now in its 23rd year, the event features a parade with a marching band, color guards, honor guards, police and fire units, the American Legion, and the Northern Virginia Fireighters Emerald Society Pipe Band, and more.
The parade will be followed by a ceremony, then a thousands-strong eastbound motorcycle ride.
Spectators can line Fairfax Boulevard west of the Harley-Davidson dealership, 9739 Fairfax Blvd, for the event.
