Headed out on the Ride For the Fallen tomorrow (Monday) morning. Be riding my HD from Las Vegas to Arlington National Cemetery with the Coast to Coast Foundation. CxC is made up of active and former members of the Special Operations Community, who I supported for just over 10 years. We raise funds and send Vets to get treatment for TBI's and much more. Additionally we work to assist Gold Start Families, raise awareness and provide a confidential place for Vets to talk about what they've been through. I am proud to say we have put 84 through treatment so far.

The motto of Ride For the Fallen is Celebrate, Remember and Honor and we do just that. Every year we do just that for a few selected SOF who fell in combat. This year we have two Gold Start Family Members joining us for the ride. One who lost a son and another who lost her husband. It is very humbling to have them with us. It's great to see them smile and laugh.

It's a very personal thing for me. I went to great lengths to protect those I supported as best I could. My goal was to insure they all came home and I hung it out pretty far and did some truly sketchy sh1t to accomplish that. Sadly I lost five in combat. That mission continues for me and I've learned that the clock is ticking for many who have returned. At least twice a year I am notified that someone has ended their life. It's heartbreaking and it makes me mad, so my mission continues.

If you're along the route, please come out and join us. Or you can follow along via Instagram @cxcfoundation Here's the link to our website if you want to read up on more of what we do. https://coastxcoast.org/



All dressed up and ready to roll!


Combat Veterans of America, Las Vegas Chapter met and escorted us into Las Vegas.



WOW, that's quite a group, the things they have been through

I sold it. After a lot of thought, I just don't have it in me to build another car to the level of the last one. I am debating on getting a C6 Z06 and turning it into a track car or finding another 1st gen and doing a track style build. Time will tell.

Sorry to hear that, Curtis. I know it would have been great. It takes so much time and effort though that I can easily understand your decision.

Meh...less stress. I'm still tempted. Though if I do go down the rabbit hole again, I'm just sending it to Brycen. It's the easy button and I kinda like easy these days. I just have to dial in on if I want a badass PT car or a track car.
