Cyclists and Friends -
This will be my third year riding with Team 26 and I am as motivated as ever. I ride every year with the hope that someday we will all live in a world where no one has to fear for their safety in school, at home, on the streets, in the workplace, or anywhere. I also ride with the goal of educating everyone about mental health in order to de-stigmatize it and eliminate the tragedies that have become so common in our society that are connected to mental health ailments. Please support our journey as we ride on, this year with our destination set as Pittsburg, PA along with many communities that struggle with these challenges everyday.
Any help you can offer is greatly appreciatted no matter how large or small.
Thank you for your time and support,
Benjamin Douglas
Sandy Hook Ride on Washington
THE WE ARE ONE RIDE
Team 26 will ride from Newtown to Pittsburgh.
We will leave Newtown on April 26th and arrive in Pittsburgh on May 2nd with stops in Peekskill, Morristown, Trenton, Philadelphia, the University of Delaware, Baltimore, Gettysburg, and many small towns.
Our message remains the same:
Peace, Hope, Love.
To reduce gun violence, we must all come together as one Nation to stomp out hate.
So, we'll ride to Pittsburgh uniting Newtown with Squirrel Hill and all communities in between.
We will ride with Charlestown, Christchurch, Sutherland Springs, and Oak Creek in our hearts.
An attack on one faith is an attack on all faiths.
