Mother Nature delivered a picture-perfect day for the 13th Annual Nevada Law Enforcement Memorial Ride on Saturday, May 2.

Dozens of retired first responders gathered not just to ride, but to reconnect, reflect, and honor comrades whose sacrifice is never forgotten. Engines roared to life at the James D. Hoff Peace Officer Memorial in Reno, where motorcycles and classic cars lined up before making their way toward Virginia City.

The procession turned heads along the route and rolled into town for a spirited parade down C Street, followed by lunchtime gatherings at Bonanza Cantina, where stories were shared and bonds renewed.

Funds raised from the event support the James D. Hoff Memorial, helping maintain existing tributes and expand Nevada memorials that might otherwise go unfunded. For more information, visit NLEMR.org.
