Follow me along The Road To Valour

This is where my blog posts will appear. They will be related to what is near to my heart and to what this project is all about – for the most part.

These injuries have a tragic impact on our Veterans, First Responders, and…

Today, 21 November, 2023, is also a significant day in the life span of The Road To Valour project. Today marks 18 months before the ride begins. It should be noted that Canada was a participant…
