2008 Face of America Bike Ride
Posted on 04/28/2008 9:11:37 AM PDT by HonorBnd
On May 3rd & 4th, 2008 World T.E.A.M. Sports (The Exceptional Athlete Matters), working with the Walter Reed Army Medical Center, The National Navy Medical Center, The Soldiers Angel Foundation, The Injured Marine Semper Fi Fund, and others will be hosting our 2008 Face of America Bike Ride, a two-day inclusive bike ride from Bethesda, MD to historic Gettysburg, PA to honor and assist servicemen and women who have been severely injured in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and any and all other servicemen and women as well.
If you are interested in participating in the ride itself or making a donation, please visit www.worldteamsports.org.
We’re looking for Eagles to come out and support these riders as they leave Bethesda and head up to PA.
If you’re interested in meeting the riders in MD, please let me know via email (below).
If you’re interested in meeting the riders in PA, please contact our NJ coordinator at vanzorge@optonline.net.
Also, if you have a medical background (nurse, EMT, doctor, etc) and would like to support the riders, please specify your background..
Remember, it’s not only our job to support our deployed service members, but those on the home front as well-ESPECIALLY those whose bodies are living memorials to the price of freedom. Come out and show your support!

I'll join the ride if someone will give me a bike.
Preferably at least 1100cc, sporty and flickable, new.

It sounds like fun, but I’d have a hard time fitting my backside into a bicycle seat.

I wish I could, but I am in Delaware and a stay at home mom, so it would be kinda hard, otherwise I would in a heartbeat!

Great walking with you through the halls of the Senate offices on behalf of our troops in April. I’m the woman who gave you the song STAND UP to send to the chaplain at Guantanamo Bay. Since I’m from California I won’t be able to bike ride, but am praying for you all this weekend and will include this bike ride on the free republic prayer thread:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-religion/1978670/posts
The prayer which covers this will be at about post #275. It will be posted in the next few minutes.
