Ride with Purpose

🏍️🔥 WELL, LOOK AT ALL THESE NEW FACES! WELCOME TO RIDE WITH PURPOSE! 🔥🏍️

We’ve had a bunch of new folks join us lately, and we wanted to take a minute to say THANK YOU and WELCOME TO THE FAMILY!

We’re damn glad you’re here! 🤘

For those who don’t know much about us yet, Ride with Purpose (RwP) is a 100% volunteer, community driven nonprofit with two missions close to our hearts:

🇺🇸 OUR VETERANS: Supporting, advocating for, and giving back to the men and women who have served our country.

❤️ OUR KIDS: Bringing hope, happiness, and opportunities to at risk youth who could use a little extra love and encouragement.

We believe in the power of the motorcycle community to bring people together and make some pretty incredible things happen!

Throughout the year, we host rides, fundraisers, community gatherings, and special events ALL OVER MICHIGAN! And trust us, we have a hell of a good time doing it! 😎

NOW, HERE’S WHERE YOU COME IN!

Can’t make it to an event? Money’s a little tight and donating isn’t in the cards right now?

NO PROBLEM! WE’VE GOT SOMETHING YOU CAN DO FOR ABSOLUTELY ZERO DOLLARS! 💥

✅ Invite your friends to follow our page!

✅ Share our posts and upcoming events!

✅ Like, comment, and engage with our content!

That’s it. Seriously!

NETWORKING IS ONE OF THE MOST POWERFUL TOOLS WE HAVE!

That one post you share might reach someone who needs our help. It might introduce us to a veteran who’s struggling, a family that needs support, or someone who wants to get involved and make a difference.

You never know whose life you might impact just by hitting that share button.

And that’s what Ride with Purpose is all about.

We’re not here to be the biggest motorcycle organization around. We’re here to make a difference, build friendships, strengthen communities, and have a damn good time along the way!

So whether you ride two wheels, three wheels, four wheels, or no wheels at all, THERE’S A PLACE FOR YOU HERE!

Thanks again for joining us, thanks for believing in what we’re doing, and we sure as hell hope to shake your hand somewhere down the road!

RIDE WITH PURPOSE. LIVE WITH PURPOSE. 🏍️❤️🇺🇸

Last night I couldn’t sleep.

My mind kept wandering to all the things I’ve wanted to do over the years but never got around to doing.

Roads I’ve wanted to ride. Places I’ve wanted to see. Old friends I haven’t sat down with in years. All those things I kept putting off because I figured there would always be time.

And it got me thinking…

When the hell did life start moving so fast?

Our parents are getting older. Our kids are growing up. Things are changing right before our eyes, and somehow the years just keep slipping by.

We spend so much time looking back at the “good old days” that sometimes we forget we’re making new ones right now.

Think about that for a minute.

Ten years from now, you might look back at today and wish you could live it all over again.

So why wait?

Take the trip. Ride that road. Call that friend. Make some memories. Laugh a little louder. Love a little harder. Quit waiting for the perfect time, because chances are, there isn’t one.

Life isn’t standing still, and neither should we.

🎙️🔥 RwP IS HITTING THE AIRWAVES TONIGHT!! 🔥🎙️

Alright, you beautiful degenerates!! 😂🍻

Tonight I’ll be joining Bikes, Babes & Booze with Jim & Scott

These two will be live from 8 PM to 10 PM, and yours truly will be jumping into the madness around 8:30 PM, right after their first commercial break!

📻 LISTEN LIVE: www.crbradio.com

Before the shenanigans begin, Emily and I want to give a HUGE shoutout to Jim and Scott.

These fellas have been some damn good friends to Ride with Purpose. They’re constantly giving us shoutouts, spreading the word about what we’re doing, and helping us get our mission in front of more people.

And fellas, I hope you know just how much that means to us.

We’re a small, volunteer driven organization trying to do some pretty big things for veterans, at risk youth, and our communities. Having good people like you in our corner makes one hell of a difference.

We appreciate the hell out of both of you! ❤️🤘

So here’s the deal, folks!

🍺 Grab yourself a cold one!

🛋️ Kick those feet up!

📻 Fire up that radio!

And come hang out with Jim, Scott, and the Big Yeti for some good old-fashioned biker bu****it, laughs, and probably a few things we shouldn’t say on the radio! 😂

TONIGHT! 8 PM TO 10 PM!

🎙️ BIG YETI JOINS THE PARTY AROUND 8:30 PM!

👉 www.crbradio.com

Show these boys some love, share this post, and help us spread the word!

RIDE WITH PURPOSE. LIVE WITH PURPOSE.

🤘🍻 HOLLA!! 🐬

Alright, onward!! 🎃🏍️

Up next is our annual Bike or Treat event in downtown Traverse City!

Now that the powers that be got their heads out of their asses and brought the kids’ Trick or Treat event back to a Saturday, the crew and I will once again be set up near Nolan’s and WTCM this year.

We’re encouraging riders to not only decorate their bikes, but decorate themselves too! Let’s bring the smiles, hand out some candy, and show these kids, their parents, and the entire community what Ride with Purpose is all about.

We’re inviting anyone who’s available to come hang out with us. Whether you’re on two wheels or just want to be part of the fun, we’d love to see you there!

A quick reminder: this is a kid-friendly event. Let’s keep things appropriate and make sure we’re creating the kind of environment families want to come back to.

📅 Saturday, October 31
⏰ 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM
📍 Downtown Traverse City

RwP will be getting there early to grab a few spots, so if you see bikes lined up, pull in and park with us!

Not a rider? No problem! Bring the kiddos down for some family fun. Let them check out the bikes, sit on them, take some pictures, and learn a little bit about what Ride with Purpose does.

Myself and Mrs. Yeti will be there the entire time, so if you want to learn more, find one of the bikers and have them point you in our direction.

Let’s show Traverse City what happens when the motorcycle community comes together with a purpose.

Ride with Purpose. Live with Purpose. 🎃🏍️
