Motorbike Ceremony On The Occasion Of The Bicentenary Of The Heroic Military College Of Mexico

Motorcyclists arrive at the Heroic Military College facilities located in Tlalpan, Mexico City, to commemorate a ceremony to mark the Bicentenary of the Heroic Military College of Mexico. Created after the consummation of Mexico's independence, first as a Cadet Academy in 1822, and as a Military College a year later, this school made possible the military discipline that allowed Mexico to successfully resist subsequent invasion attempts, maintain its independence and decide its destiny.
