    About the Ride : Children of our soldiers, especially those soldiers who have been wounded or will not be coming home, make a special sacrifice that needs to be recognized.

    RedWhiteandBike is dedicated to recognizing this incredible sacrifice that is too often overlooked. We do so through a special gift of a world-class bicycle for these little heroes, the young sons and daughters of our country’s Purple Heart recipients.

    Kids love bikes! We provide a quality bike that has been selected by the child and customized to tell the story about the service of their parent. This gift will provide the child much pleasure while reminding others of their parent’s service and love of country; this is a very unique way to say “thanks”.
