Mental Health Awareness Ride

Want to join us in making a difference? We are raising money to benefit Motorcycle Relief Project, and any donation will help make an impact. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to us.

For those who do not know us, we [email redacted]es.ride.

Together we have served our country and community for over 55 years as members of the military and as law enforcement officers.

Please help support us as we ride across our great country while raising money for a great veteran and first responders’ nonprofit organization and bringing awareness to Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and mental health awareness. We will document our progress while riding with pictures, videos and various updates. We will be starting in Pennsylvania and making our way to US Highway 50, known as “The Loneliest Road in America” to the west coast and then returning via the historic Route 66. We are starting our journey at the end of May and aiming to finish in 30 days. Please follow our [email redacted]es.ride on Instagram.

ALL funds raised will go directly to the Motorcycle Relief Project and are tax deductible. The funds raised will provide relief to veterans and first responders with PTSD and other related issues by taking them on structured week-long adventure motorcycle relief rides in Colorado and Arizona. You can learn more on their website: Motorcycle Relief Project (motorelief.org)
