The Ride

Domestic violence is something that should not exist in today's society. Unfortunately it is more prevalent and horrible than many people know. Abuse can happen to anyone. It knows no age, race or sexual boundaries.


I am only a motorcycle rider, not an activist. I see these things in society and I want to do my part to make things better before my time here on Earth is through.


I invite you to ride along with me on this journey by visiting my ride blog, making a small donation or support my sponsors.

About

A map, a motorcycle and a cause. This is a ride from Las Vegas, Nevada to Kitty Hawk, North Carolina to raise funds for the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence and help bring awareness of domestic violence to the public.
