The "Wish You Were Here Ride" is a cross-country motorcycle journey to promote suicide prevention awareness. Through communication, this motorcycle ride aims to help remove the stigma associated with suicide. Additionally, we're attempting to raise money for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.
Who We're Riding For
One of the top 10 most common causes of death in the nation is suicide. It is the only one of the ten that can actually be avoided. Every 11 minutes, a suicide occurs. There are 25 suicide attempts for every suicide. In other words, 26 attempts at suicide are made every 11 minutes, with one actually succeeding. It must stop now.
We ride for those individuals who have lost the battle with suicide. If you'd like to have a loved one remembered, you can submit their name and a photo here.
