In light of the widespread cancellations of Veterans Day parades and other celebrations across the state due to health safety concerns, the American Legion Riders (ALR) District 9 of Contra Costa County will co-host a motorcycle run with ALR District 10 of Alameda County through several downtown areas across their respective districts on Wednesday.

Organizers state that the purpose of this run is to honor and celebrate the American veterans across the two counties without inviting or incurring large public gatherings.

The tentative course and schedule as of the time of this release is as follows:
