Can-Am Helps Veterans with Road Warrior Foundation

The biggest annual event is the Road Warrior Ride, where together, the organization take a group of young, wounded veterans on a cross-country ride on Can-Am Spyders.

Can-Am is in its fifth year as title sponsor of the Road Warrior Foundation. The company works alongside the organization to provide adventures to wounded veterans – many of them first time riders. The biggest annual event is the Road Warrior Ride, where together, the organization take a group of young, wounded veterans (male and female) on a cross-country ride on Can-Am Spyders.
The 2018 Road Warrior Ride took place in late October, and they rode from San Jose, CA, to San Antonio, TX.
Can-Am put together a video about the experience. 
Every year, Can-Am donates a Spyder to RWF to use for fundraising to help support this event and others. This year, the company was invited to participate in the Las Vegas Barrett-Jackson Auction with that donated vehicle, which they customized ahead of time. The Spyder sold for an incredible $186,000. All of that money goes directly to providing adventures to veterans, as it is a 100 percent volunteer organization.
