From the Warrior 100K Ride homepage:
As part of the George W. Bush Presidential Center’s Social Enterprise Initiative, the Warrior 100K Bike Ride highlighted the bravery and physical strength of the warriors wounded in Iraq or Afghanistan, as well as those organizations that have made continuing commitments to supporting America’s heroes.
The three day event provided an opportunity for military support organizations to highlight their good work and was sponsored by several companies and individuals that have generously contributed their time and resources to support America’s servicemen and women.
Fox News’ Bret Baier joined along in the ride, and reported back on this fantastic cause and the ride itself. Some of the heroes in the story were U.S. Army Specialist Juan Carlos Hernandez, Army Sgt. Major Chris Self, Marine SSgt. Andy Hatcher, Army Sgt. Sam Cila, and Army Specialist Jacob Lerner. The ride took place from April 25th to the 27th of this year.
This bike ride was through the desert southwest part of Texas, and by all accounts was a grueling trek. But even though some sustained damage to their prostheses, or were injured during the ride, there wasn’t a single one who complained. I love to see W. interact with our troops…the relationship is obviously a warm one, and the friendships are felt both ways.
I really admire President Bush and, even more, our heroic men and women in the military who have sacrificed more than most of us can imagine. I hope you all took a few moments of your holiday today and this weekend, and said some prayers and thank-yous to all of them.
By the way, there are many other videos you should check out over on the 100K ride page.
