The 14th annual, 10-day, cross-country ride will end at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C., on Friday, May 23. On Memorial Day, with an estimated 200,000 motorcycling particlpants making the trek, they rode through the streets of the capital in the Rolling Thunder Memorial Day Parade, eventually ending at "The Wall" itself. Many Indian employees pitched in on weekends so that Domingue could participate in the ride. "It's been over 30 years since I served in Vietnam, 1967-68, Khe Sahn," Domingue said. "And through the years, I've batlJed my own demons, but I found out about the ride three years ago, and it has changed my life." The bike will be available for bjdding on eBay motors (www.ebaymotors.com) between May 30 and June 8, with all of the profits benefiting the POW Network, a nonprofit organization that focuses on POW and MIA issues.
