ONEONTA, NY – The American Legion Riders Post 259 are hosting a scenic motorcycle ride to help support this year’s American Cancer Society Relay for Life event on May 18 for Otsego County. Open to the public, this ride will begin in Oneonta with a Blessing of the Bikes at 12p and end with a barbeque at the Relay For Life event, courtesy of the Milford Fire Department and Emergency Squad, in Milford’s Wilbur Park. Along the way, the Legion Riders will be escorted by the Oneonta Police Department, the Milford Fire Department and Emergency Squad, and the Cooperstown Police Department.
