Supporting Veterans - We Ride For Those Who Can't
Please join us in supporting our military veterans. Your contribution will make an impact, whether you donate $5 or $500. Every little bit helps. Your support enables us to participate and serve in the largest and longest organized cross-country motorcycle run of its kind in the world. The run is organized by a non-profit organization dedicated to showing appreciation for our veterans.
Every day in the United States, 22 veterans succumb to suicide, losing their personal battle to invisible wounds of war. Too many vets are ignored and sidelined, after sacrificing for their country.
This is a wonderful way for America to say, "Thank you for your service".
Mission Statement
To promote healing among ALL veterans and their families and friends, to call for an accounting of all Prisoners of War and those Missing in Action (POW/MIA), to honor the memory of those Killed in Action (KIA) from all wars, and to support our military personnel all over the world.
Philosophy
We strive to maintain a safe, supportive, and private atmosphere in which all participants can reflect and heal on their journey to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, DC, and the Middle East Conflicts Wall Memorial in Marseilles, Illinois in the hope they can return home to a new beginning.
Goals
To guide the participants across America. To educate future generations on the importance of accountability in wartime actions, emphasizing that no one should be left behind.
Why We Ride
We are passionate about supporting the Mission Statement, Philosophy, and Goals. We ride in remembrance of and to honor my uncle, Colonel Grady Frank Fisher, who served in the U.S. Air Force in Korea and as the Flight Commander/Forward Operating Base Commander in Vietnam with the "Green Hornets" 20th Special Operations Squadron in 68-69.
Grady Frank Fisher was born on May 27, 1931 in Paris, TX to Robert Grady Fisher and Florence Evelyn (Grimes) Fisher. He married Sandra Jean Bunn on February 9, 1958 in Nashville, TN. While an officer in the United States Air Force, Colonel Fisher earned many medals of distinction and commendation, including the Combat Readiness Medal, Meritorious Service Medal, and the Distinguished Flying Cross.
He also served his country as the first Commander of the 5040th Helicopter Rescue Squadron at Elmendorf AFB in Alaska. His final assignment was as Professor of Aerospace Studies and Commander AFROTC Detachment at North Texas State University.
Uncle Grady passed away on Jan 18, 2019 at the age of 87. May he rest in peace and fly with the angels.

We will be traveling approximately 7300 miles over 30 days from WA to CA to D.C. to IL and back to WA. Any funds raised beyond the goal amount will be donated directly to the non-profit organization. Please help us to participate and serve. We need your help to make it happen! Thank you for donating!
We are grateful for all who serve in the military, and we have big welcome home hugs for each of you!
We ride for those who can't. Continue the Mission! All the way!
Sincerely,
