Motorcyclists are gathering to honor a 18-year-old killed in a Green Valley crash.

The Tucson Representatives are gathering to make their way to the official starting point of the ride near Continental Road and Abriego Drive.
 
 
Everyone close to Tyler needs support because he was laid to rest this morning in Sahuarita.
 
Tyler's mother wanted to organize the ride for her son because he was laid to rest today and always wanted be apart of a large motorcycle ride.
 
More than 300 people have RSVP'd for the ride on Facebook and 300 more wrote that they were interested in attending. Organizers say that Tucson, Green Valley, Phoenix and Nogales will be represented during the ride.
 
The ride will go past some of Tyler's favorite locations like a skate park, where he was buried and ending at Desert Diamond Casino off Pima Mine Road.
