Associated Press reports that a Flight 93 victim's relatives are organizing a cross-country motorcycle ride to honor the victims and raise money for a national memorial in southwestern Pennsylvania.

Ken and Dale Nacke, whose brother Louis Nacke II died in the September 11, 2001, plane crash, plan to retrace the flight's intended path. They'll depart from Newark, N.J., on Sept. 3 and arrive in San Francisco this September 11th.

The group will make a stop in Shanksville, which is near the crash site. The $58 million, 2,200-acre memorial is expected to open on the attacks' 10th anniversary.

The bikers will be carrying a section of chain link fence tagged with mementos similar to the temporary memorial at the crash site.
