YARMOUTH – The 14th Annual Big Nick’s Ride for the Fallen Memorial Motorcycle Ride will occur on Sunday, July 16, 2023, starting at 9:00AM at the Barnstable County Sheriff’s Office—right across from our Massachusetts National Cemetery in Bourne.
This special event is named in memory of United States Marine Corporal Nicholas G. Xiarhos who was killed in combat during Operation Strike of the Sword on July 23, 2009, in Afghanistan and will honor and remember the lives of the 16 fallen Americans with ties to Cape Cod who lost their lives in service to our great Nation since the Attack on America on September 11, 2001.
This is the largest Memorial Motorcycle Ride on the Cape and Islands—with over 1,000 Motorcyclists participating from all over America and everyone is encouraged to show their love and support along the route.
We look forward to this very special and emotional event and thank all those who have served and defended our great nation all over the Globe.
