The American Legion Riders are members of the American Legion who are also motorcycle enthusiasts. They can be found participating in parades, partaking in motorcycling events, and supporting the communities in which they live, work, and play. Members of the ALR come from the Legion, the Legion Auxilliary, and the Sons of the American Legion. The American Legion Riders were formed...
...to participate in parades and other ceremonies that are in keeping with the Aims and Purposes of the American Legion.
...to promote motorcycle safety programs and to provide a social atmosphere for American Legion members who share the same interest.
...to use our Association to promote and support programs of the American Legion.
The American Legion Riders is not a M/C, and does not practice M/C rules or regulations. The American Legion Riders is family-oriented, just as is its parent organization: the American Legion.
"We, your American Legion Riders, ride for God and Country, the American Legion family, and allied veterans everywhere, protect those that protect us, Amen."

Mesothelioma & Veterans
More than 300 asbestos-contaminated products were used by the military, primarily by the Navy, from the 1930s through the 1970s. All ships, vessels and shipyards made use of asbestos; particularly where construction, overhauls and repairs took place.
Asbestos exposure can lead to the development of mesothelioma, a rare and aggressive cancer. Unfortunately, veterans comprise approximately 30 percent of all mesothelioma diagnoses and many veterans were exposed to asbestos during military service.

The dates have been finalized for the 2010 Legacy Run - the widely successful fundraising event that brings in motorcyclists from all over the country. Legion Riders will depart from Indianapolis on Aug. 22 and arrive Aug. 26 in Milwaukee, the site of the Legion’s 92nd National Convention.
The route will be determined at a later date.
Funds raised at the Legacy Run directly benefit The American Legion Legacy Scholarship fund, which provides college money for the children of servicemembers killed on active duty on or after Sept. 11, 2001. The previous three Legacy runs have netted more than $1 million for the fund.
