The Soldier Ride Project began in 2004 when Chris Carney from Long Island, NY, completed a coast-to-coast bicycle ride in support of The Wounded Warrior Project. Chris rode over 4,000 miles and raised in excess of $1,000,000.  In 2005, Chris again conducted a coast-to-coast ride, this time with Staff Sergeant Heath Calhoun, a double leg amputee and Staff Sergeant Ryan Kelly, a single leg amputee both injured serving in Iraq.

Watch the evolution of Soldier Ride from it’s unlikely beginnings at a bar on Long Island, its effects on the wounded service members and veterans it helps as well as its effect on how America treats its wounded warriors as a result of community awareness.
