The registration is now live! For 2014, each participant will get a ride pin (first 1,000 to register), a long sleeve t-shirt (available if you register by October 24), one ride ribbon per bike, and lunch on the base.
Despite many people telling us we are undercharging for tickets, we want to keep prices low to enable as many people as possible to make the ride. We’d encourage you to chip in a bit extra via the “Donation” line when you buy tickets. 100% of the donations and ticket sales go to support the Injured Warriors.
We have confirmed the 2014 date for the Injured Warrior Appreciation Run. It will be Friday, November 7. We have a few minor details to finalize. Once those are worked out, we’ll begin ticket sales. Expect that to happen in the next few weeks, but go ahead and block off that day in your calendar, and mark it as a vacation day with your boss.
Stay tuned!
This is the 2012 Injured Warrior Appreciation Run video. Now that the 2013 video is on the front page, I wanted to provide a place to host our video from last year.
The 2013 video is on the front page of the site now, as well as below so it will always remain on the site.
The Orange County Register has a writeup on the 2013 Injured Warrior Appreciation Run. Thanks everyone for helping to make this such a successful event for our troops!
The online registration for the 2013 Injured Warrior Appreciation Run is now closed. If you still want to go, the on-site registration begins at 7:30am at Orange County Harley-Davidson. You can still make donations to this great event on our registration page.
It is going to be a great event! We’ll share info about the event on this site in the coming weeks, so check back, or sign up at the bottom of the front page to get email updates.
Remember, registration and check in begins at 7:30am on November 1. Please DO NOT show up before 7:30am as the road closures and staff setup won’t be complete until then. If you haven’t registered, you should be there by 8:30am at the very latest to ensure you are ready to go by the 9:30 departure time.
Here are the sponsors that have generously donated for the 2013 ride. Without their kindness, this event would not be possible.

We’ve also had a number of donors who wish to remain anonymous, so we’d like to thank them for their contributions as well.
We are thrilled to announce that our ride will include an escort by five very special cars – “Fueled by the Fallen”. These unique commemorative Camaro cars honor those Americans who were victims of the 9/11 attacks. There is one car for each of the following groups:
This rolling tribute is not to be missed. Find out more about these unique cars here and on you tube video below. Please join them to pay tribute to our injured military at the 2nd Annual Injured Warrior Appreciation Run on November 1st. Register today!
Please consider supporting our injured men and women who must leave their military service. You can find out more about how to help by hiring a vet or the spouse of an injured vet. Contact Gary.Zegley@usmc.mil
