Ride to Recovery Effort

A prominent industry figurehead is soliciting help from his fellow expedited delivery professionals for a good cause. Bruce Ross of Express Air is participating in a 530 mile bicycle ride in September to remember the fallen police, fire, civilian and military personnel that died in the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001.

All of the proceeds for the ride will benefit the "Ride 2 Recovery" program that helps wounded warriors progress through physical therapy with bike rides. The full release is listed below:

REMEMBERING SEPTEMBER 11th – I need your help…

I am writing directly to my annual Air Cargo Conference brethren to help with this worthy cause in remembrance and in support. Yes, it is Bruce again with one of his crazy rides for charity. But I think this is one of the most important ever.

This September 11, the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 attack, I have the honor of participating in a 530 mile bicycle ride starting at Ground Zero, then to the Flight 93 Memorial in Shanksville, PA, and continuing to the Pentagon Memorial in Washington, D.C. This ride is in remembrance of our fallen police, fire, civilian and military personnel who died as a result of this attack on America.

All proceeds from this ride are going to help our wounded warriors with their recovery through physical therapy by introducing bike riding. Due to amputations and disfigurement, many of these heroes could not ride if it wasn’t for the “Ride 2 Recovery.” Bikes are custom made to accommodate their injuries giving them freedom and purpose. They have so many success stories of giving our soldiers a second chance.

In order to make this ride successful, I really need your help in raising sponsorship and support for this event. The goal is for each rider to raise $3000, $1 for each victim of the 9/11 attack.

Please go to the link below and assist our wounded warriors and remember the 10th anniversary of 9/11. Just put in my name (Bruce Ross) and make your donation. Every little bit helps, so please give what you can. Remember 9/11 – and remember our heroes. We can’t do this without you.
