Saturday, 23 May 2009, marked the first Fallen Heroes Memorial Run to benefit a public service memorial and a baseball field in memory of Sacramento County Deputy Sheriff Jeff Mitchell, who was gunned down during a traffic stop in October 2006. His killer is still at large.
My buddy Dan Gothier, who works for the El Dorado Hills Parks Department, and his fellow coworkers, put on an incredible motorcycle run in their first effort. The day began with a pancake breakfast followed by a 114 mile run that visited Sheriff Mitchell's roadside memorial and wrapped up with a barbecue lunch. The weather was spectacular and a wonderful time was had by all. An estimated 500 bikes made the run. It was a fitting celebration for the Memorial Day weekend.
