The Warrior Ride is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization
founded in Oak Island, North Carolina with a mission of rehabilitation for our
injured war heroes. By implementing challenging adaptive bicycling and morale
building events, The Warrior Ride founders believe our nation’s heroes are
given an opportunity to be able to take pride in the skills they have and
redefine their capabilities through accomplishment in an atmosphere of
camaraderie and support. The Warrior Ride uses adaptive bicycling and other
morale building events, such as kayaking and golf as a tool for recreation and
rehabilitation. The Warrior Ride events take place in various locations throughout
the United States. There is no cost to the service member to participate in The
Warrior Ride events. All expenses are paid through donations and grants.
