Soldier Ride is a program that provides cycling opportunities across the country for wounded warrior. The project cooperate with Friends of the IDF (FIDF), arrives to Israel, and gives a unique opportunity to American and Israeli wounded soldiers to ride together cross Israel.
Wounded Warrior Project (WWP) is a national nonprofit organization that works to honor and empower wounded soldiers, and to provide them with tangible support so that they can heal both physically and mentally.
Soldier Ride is a program that provides cycling opportunities across the country for wounded warriors. All participants suffering from a disability are provided with the adaptive equipment they need to cycle. The soldiers are able to feel active and have fun, but they are also able to show society how much they have sacrificed for their country and how brave they truly are
Four years ago the WWP and the FIDF started their collaboration, and since then, they have a yearly cycling tour in New York. The joined ride was a symbol of the support and the solidarity between the American and Israeli soldiers, fighting together, in different parts of the world, against terror.
2010 is the first time that the joined ride comes to Israel. At October 13th, 20 wounded soldiers arrived to Israel for an 11 day cycle tour across the country.
Israeli wounded soldiers will escort their American visitors, and will cycle with them.
