| Bikers come in all shapes, sizes, colors, skill levels, convictions, and abilities. This old vet was playing Amazing Grace in the Pentagon parking lot when I stopped to get a pic. I didn't even notice at first that he was perfectly lined up to get the flag and the Washington Monument in the background. |

| Waiting to park. There are typically about 500,000 bikes riding in Rolling Thunder. |
 |
| A lot of HOG Chapters rode from various locations with police escorts. |
 |
| One of our favorite charities... |
 |
| Even though the Rally started at noon, with so many riders, it was several hours before some started to ride. We were in the first of four or five parking lots, and it still took two hours of bikes leaving before we moved. Several people took advantage of the wait by catching up on their sleep!! |
 |
| This Marine had been retired for over 20 years and still wore his uniform for the ride! |

| Waiting to ride... |
 |
| The rows went one at a time. From start to finish, it took 2 to 3 minutes just for one row of bikes to depart. With hundreds of rows of bikes just in our lot alone, you can see why it takes so long to get moving. |
 |
| The LONG wait!!! |
 |
| Every biker organization you can think of is represented. |
