State Rep. Stephen Exaros recalls son’s death and how Big Nick’s Ride for the Fallen grew into Cape Cod’s largest memorial procession
State Rep. Stephen Exaros, who lost his son Nicholas in combat, described how a motorcycle escort after his son’s 2009 funeral inspired the annual Big Nick’s Ride for the Fallen; the volunteer-run nonprofit now organizes a 35-mile procession with Gold Star families and thousands of participants and offers livestreamed ceremonies and veteran resources.

Do it again, tomorrow, Sunday!

Today’s Alex Pretti Unity ride sounds amazing, but a local community group asked me to do one tomorrow (Sunday) for anyone who couldn’t make it today, so if you’re interested in a South Minneapolis 5-miler on 95% protected lanes, DM me.

Alttext: as far as you can see the street is full with bicyclists (looks a bit outside the city) and a picture of a sign „Ride - Pretti Good - we ride in Unity“

Today, like many across the US - and the world - we rode in solidarity w/ MPLS in memory of #AlexPretti and all who have been brutalized and murdered by ICE.

If we don’t stand together, we will all be crushed separately.

“The people united can not be divided!”

FUCK ICE!

Cyclists are gathering in Portland, Oregon to honor the bravery and sacrifice of Alex Pretti. This is one of hundreds of rolling vigils in the memory of the avid cyclist who was executed in the street a week ago.

The Critical Mass Seattle cyclists group gathered in Seattle’s Westlake shopping district to ride for #alexpretti. Cyclists around the country are joining to ride tonight.
Alex Pretti was an avid cyclist in his off time.

Quite a few more cyclists 🚴‍♂️ arrived before the start of the #memorialride. Maybe 300 😀. Every age and ability. Rode about 4 miles down to the Plaza by the courthouse. Had a moment of silence. I talked to others who agreed that it was an emotional experience. #Pretti #WeRideinUnity #Tucson #resist

Proud of the people who showed up for Alex in -20 windchill. You all are officially Minnesotans.

Just moments ago the parkway was TAKEN OVER by winter cyclists. At first I thought hundreds, but they just kept coming. Thousands and thousands! I almost cried. I’m so dang proud of MN right now.

New York joins the nationwide group ride for Alex Pretti.

So many people showed up for this ride for Alex Pretti and it was pretty awesome.

Totally worth the extra 30 some mile ride to get there and back.
January 31, 2026 at 9:58 PM
Today, we rode to remember Alex Pretti. Renee Good. Silverio Villegas González. And all our neighbors we’ve lost at the hands of ICE.

ICE cannot be reformed. It must be abolished.

From Chicago to Minneapolis and beyond, we will rise up and defeat fascism.

Didn’t get great pics bc I can’t bike with one hand but the NYC ride for Alex Pretti was huge—this is the back! My favorite part was biking through another protest and all of us cheering for each other
