The Ultimate Sacrifice Foundation (TUSF) Warrior Ride
Golden, CO – TUSF continues the TUSF Warrior Ride and hosts a Memorial Day Celebration at 11:00am MST on Saturday, 28 MAY 2022 from the Cannonball Creek Brewing Company located at 393 Washington Avenue, Golden, CO 80403.
The TUSF Warrior Ride is a coast-to-coast, 3,700 mile bicycle ride from Boston, MA to Coronado, CA conducted by Army Veteran Kyle Bigue to raise awareness regarding the elevated rates of suicidal ideation and post-traumatic stress within our Nation’s Service Member, Veteran, and Gold Star Family communities. This monumental endeavor began on 29 April with Kyle touching the Atlantic Ocean in Boston, and will end mid-June when he touches the Pacific Ocean in Coronado, Ca. Along the preplanned route, TUSF is hosting multiple events to raise awareness regarding the psychological toll that combat has on the human psyche, and to honor those that gave their lives while serving. Funds raised during the TUSF Warrior Ride will be used to send struggling members of the Military Community to partnering medical treatment facilities, free of charge.
On Saturday, 28 May 2022, Kyle will be passing through the Golden-area, and TUSF will host a Memorial Day Celebration to honor those who've served, past and present, and the families of those who've paid the ultimate sacrifice. This event will occur from 11:00am to 2:00pm MST at the Cannonball Creek Brewing Company, located at 393 Washington Avenue in Golden; tickets can be purchased up to and including 28 May 2022, but space is limited.
