Riders were advised the day before not to come on their bikes due to possibility of ice.  Fortunately the temperature remained about 35 over night so the roads were not icy, however, the rain and low temps continued.  Only one Rider, a Marine, rode his bike from his nearby home.  That bike became the Honor Bike to escort TSgt. Lewis to the shelter.  After the briefing the riders went to shelter A to prepare the flag line.  At that time the rain had stopped.  Just as the TSgt. Lewis was being carried into the shelter the rain began to fall.  Eventually the riders were brought under the shelter, out of the rain.  The Air Force Honor Guard performed the military honors for this Hero.  At the conclusion of the service Mr. Lewis's daughter went to each rider to thank them.  The flags were then stored in the shelter wet and the riders were dismissed to the next mission.
