Ms. Osborn is a 5 year old with an angelic voice and an amazing family of Veterans.   Nadia’s father,  Richard Osborn, served in the US Coast Guard, Nadia’s aunt and uncle Joshua & Angel Suniga served in the Navy, and Richard’s father (Nadia’s grandfather) was a colonel in the US Army.

Regretfully, Nadia also has a connection to ALS- her Uncle Pete Reyes,  Marine Veteran who sadly lost his battle with ALS in March of 2013.

Thank you Osborn family for accepting our invitation to be part of the Max’s Ride ALS Opening Ceremonies with our Salute to the Military! Nadia3

The Harley’s Heroes program is a true celebration of the camaraderie and spirit of our local veterans, those that have fought for our freedom and independence.  The mission of Harley’s Heroesis to reach out to veterans of all generations to show the high honor the Disabled American Veterans (DAV) and Harley-Davidson have for their service and sacrifice to our country.

Local veterans have been invited to attend and connect with DAV National Service Officers who will provide free benefits counseling to those veterans who suffer from service-connected injuries but may have never filed a claim for benefits or have found it difficult working through the red tape.

The DAV-MSO also utilizes donations to be able to continue touring and assisting our Veterans and their families.  We need your help!  January 19th is slated as the Harley’s Heroes, DAV-MSO fundraising cook off at Cowboy Harley-Davidson of Austin.  I invite all of you Chili lovers to come out and sample our Max’s Ride ALS chili entry “Matt’s Slow Burn Special”. Help us win the “Peoples Choice Award”.

Should be a day of fun filled day!  What better than a Chili Cook off in January!  Come on out and help support the Harley’s Heroes DAV-MSO and get yourself pre-registered for Max’s Ride & Concert for ALS VII!

Today and everyday, A huge THANK YOU goes out to all of our Veterans, Active Military Personnel and to your families for the dedication, service and sacrifice you’ve given to protect the freedoms of the United States of America!

We are truly honored that through the years many of our riders, sponsors, volunteers and donors have been Veterans and Active Military Personnel. All of us associated with Max’s Ride for ALS Research and Patient Services will continue to play our role in raising awareness of the Military connection in the increased number of ALS diagnosis among our Veterans.

Progress has been made, however our fight to strike out “The Beast” of ALS is far from over. We will continue the battle in honor and in memory of those who are no longer able.

“In Honor We Ride”
Thank You for Your Service!
