Memorial Day – The Start of Summer, a Time to Reflect
More than just another holiday, Memorial Day is a time to reflect on the true meaning of the day. It is a day where the men and women who died while serving in the United States Armed Forces are remembered. We at Eagle Leather understand and appreciate what it means to enjoy freedom in our great country. Riders, by nature, want to be free. It’s easy to feel like the open road is ultimate freedom, but the truth is that living in the USA is the ultimate freedom. Eagle Leather honors our military service men and women--and always has--by offering a military discount for over 18 years. To those who serve and to the families who have lost loved ones who served: Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
Memorial Day also typically marks the start of the summer vacation season – and for Eagle Leather, that means the start of our summer BBQs! Ride in and grab a frank fresh off the grill. No need to bring anything but your bike and an appetite. While you’re here, come inside and check out our Memorial Day Sale. We have hundreds of products on sale, including helmets, jackets, headsets, sunglasses, pants, boots, and much more! Plus - we’re offering a special coupon to help you save on items that aren’t on sale!
If you’re looking for a way to honor our service members on this Memorial Day, consider joining The Olympia Thunder Run, beginning at Eagle Leather Lakewood on May 26 at 9:30 a.m. According to the ride's Facebook page, the "Olympia Thunder Run is a motorcycle ride to the Vietnam Memorial Wall located on the grounds of the Washington State Capital in Olympia. The purpose of the ride is to raise money for the Fisher House located on Joint Base Lewis-McChord." The suggested donation is $10 for a single rider and $15 for a couple.

Yet, there’s no denying it: Unless you plan to ride exclusively around the Southern United States, you’ll face some chilly winters. And even before it...
