Route 66 Freedom Ride

Spanning more than 400 miles from Glenrio, New Mexico to the Arizona State Line, dozens of motorcyclists ride in support of members of the Armed Forces and their families. Funds raised from the ride benefit Veterans Helping Veterans.

At sunset on Saturday evening, Red Rock Park Ballon Rally participants align their baskets along Aztec Avenue in Downtown Gallup to create a ‘tunnel of fire” for the motorcycles as they arrive at the Courthouse Square.
