VETERANS CHARITY RIDE
Veterans Charity Ride (VCR) is a non-profit organization that uses Motorcycle Therapy and other life changing, life saving holistic programs that provide uplifting and healing experiences for wounded, severely injured and amputee veterans from all branches of service.
We provide our veterans with Indian Motorcycles, custom built Champion Sidecars and Trikes, to ride through the most beautiful scenic backroads of this great country, exploring America, getting our veterans outdoors, back into the environment, and connecting veterans with Mentors and other veterans, groups and supporters.
The end result of our program is a healthier and happier, more capable individual, who is now living life in a much better physical and mental condition, and able to help and support other veterans to do the same.

The rides
Since 2015 we've taken dozens of wounded and amputee veterans on motorcycles and sidecars to the Sturgis Bike Rally in South Dakota for the adventure of a lifetime! The trips were made on brand new Indian Motorcycles and custom built Champion Sidecars.
In order to reach more veterans, in 2022 we expanded to three rides & programs; June, August & October.
In 2023 we launched June as Veteran Motorcycle Therapy Month. All the rides were in and around Utah and Colorado. We partnered with Durango Rendezvous Bike Week to bring our guys and gals to Durango, CO via the Million Dollar Highway.
For 2024 we are starting in Park City and then returning to Durango for the Durango Rendezvous Bike Week to take part in excursions and rides throughout this iconic riding area.
All the rides are on America’s most beautiful back roads, getting to know each other and helping each other with Motorcycle Therapy. The shared experiences of serving brings them together, veteran to veteran to help each other heal. We also show the Veterans just how much their service means to America, by stopping in small towns along the way to meet the people of our grateful nation to celebrate these brave men and women. Along the way we surprise the riders with excursions and meet with interesting and inspiring people. This simple concept, born out of a cross-country ride and a big purpose to help veterans is now a nationally recognized program.
