All IPMBA and public safety cyclists are invited to participate in a tribute ride for Sergeant Boehm on Wednesday, December 28, 2011.
We gather at East Potomac Park, Washington DC, Haines Point Golf Course Club House Parking Lot 0630.
The ride will start at 0700 hours with our bike procession making a silent passing of Sergeant Boehm’s draped car at Park Police Headquarters.
We will ride south through Virginia, meeting and picking up riders along the way to the church.
There will be stops and meeting location made available as the route is finalized. It is approximately 17 miles to the church.
We will form at a location designated by Park Police at the church for the arrival of Sergeant Boehm and family.
Riders are welcome to meet at 0930 at the church with their bikes and join the tribute formation.
Upon conclusion of the church services, the tribute riders will form and pedal to the cemetery for a tribute formation reception of the procession. It is approximately four miles from the church to the cemetery.
Upon conclusion of the interment, the tribute riders will ride back to Haines Point. It is approximately 14 miles return trip.
Those riders who joined at the church will split from the formation at the church.
This will be an unsupported ride – please bring what you will need for the day. There will be no escorts other than those who join the ride.
