Make Every Mile Count Toward a $1 Million Donation to Those Who Protect Us
MILWAUKEE (March 28, 2025) – Harley-Davidson is proud to announce the 2025 Let’s Ride Challenge™ – Ride for Heroes, a powerful tribute to the military members, veterans, and first responders who sacrifice so much to protect and serve our communities. This year, Harley-Davidson invites riders across the country to ride with purpose. By logging miles and connecting with authorized Harley-Davidson® dealerships, every ride becomes a statement of gratitude. Every mile matters, because each one brings us closer to a $1 million donation in support of the heroes who have our backs every day. This is more than a ride. It’s the biggest and most ambitious challenge Harley-Davidson has ever launched, built on unity, respect, and the power of the open road. And as riders rack up the miles, they will also have a chance to win one of five brand-new Harley-Davidson® motorcycles. The Let’s Ride Challenge™ Ride for Heroes runs from March 28 to October 31, 2025.
“Harley-Davidson owners live to ride – for freedom and for adventure – but they also ride with heart,” said Theo Keetell, Harley-Davidson Vice President of Marketing. “The Let’s Ride Challenge – Ride for Heroes is about getting out on the open road and riding with purpose. It’s a meaningful way for riders to support the communities that serve us all, simply by doing what they already love to do: ride Harley-Davidson motorcycles. It’s the ultimate expression of our 2025 campaign: Our Road. Our Rules. Let’s Ride.”
The organizations supported by Let’s Ride Challenge Ride for Heroes are: 1 Soldier 1 Dog 1 Team, American Legion Riders,Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association®, Hanks for Our Troops, Motorcycle Missions, National Association of Buffalo Soldiers and Troopers™, Rolling Thunder®, Wounded Warrior Project®, and Veterans of Foreign Wars.
