TORONTO,\u00a0Oct. 20, 2014\u00a0\/CNW\/ –\u00a0Wounded Warriors Canada is proud to announce that they will host their second annual Battlefield Bike Ride. The 2015 Battlefield Bike Ride (BBR15) will begin where their inaugural ride concluded this summer, at the iconic\u00a0Vimy Ridge\u00a0Memorial. The ride, covering nearly 600 km, will take Canadians through\u00a0France,\u00a0Belgium, and\u00a0the Netherlands\u00a0visiting historic Canadian battlefields and memorials that played a significant role in not only liberating\u00a0Europe, but also in defining\u00a0Canada\u00a0as a nation.<\/p>\n

\n

The ride will pass through sites including Passchendaele,\u00a0Flanders\u00a0and the Menin Gate before shifting focus to the critical role Canadian troops played in liberating\u00a0the Netherlands, and ultimately, Europe.\u00a0 As the world marks the 70th Anniversary of VE Day and the Liberation of\u00a0the Netherlands, riders will trace the route of the Canadian Army through the Scheldt estuary as they pushed their way through heavy opposition on the path to Victory. The ride will culminate in Nijmegen.<\/p>\n

The participants, composed of Canadians from all walks of life, will be fundraising in support of the life changing programs Wounded Warriors Canada funds nationally to assist of\u00a0Canada’s\u00a0ill and injured Canadian Armed Forces members and their families.<\/p>\n

Scott Maxwell, Executive Director of Wounded Warriors Canada, commented, \u00ab\u00a0This summer, in\u00a0France, we witnessed the incredible impact our Battlefield Bike Ride had on Canadians. These events bring us together as one, commemorating our military history while raising awareness and funds to support the life changing programs we fund across\u00a0Canada.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n

The 2015 Battlefield Bike Ride is open to all Canadians and registration begins on\u00a0Monday, October 27th<\/sup>. For complete ride information visit:\u00a0<\/b>www.bbr15.ca<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

TORONTO,\u00a0Oct. 20, 2014\u00a0\/CNW\/ -\u00a0Wounded Warriors Canada is proud to announce that they will host their second annual Battlefield Bike Ride. The 2015 Battlefield Bike Ride (BBR15) will begin where their inaugural ride concluded this summer, at the iconic\u00a0Vimy Ridge\u00a0Memorial. The ride, covering nearly 600 km, will take Canadians through\u00a0France,\u00a0Belgium, and\u00a0the Netherlands\u00a0visiting historic Canadian battlefields and memorials that played a significant role in not only liberating\u00a0Europe, but also in defining\u00a0Canada\u00a0as a nation.<\/p>

The ride will pass through sites including Passchendaele,\u00a0Flanders\u00a0and the Menin Gate before shifting focus to the critical role Canadian troops played in liberating\u00a0the Netherlands, and ultimately, Europe.\u00a0 As the world marks the 70th Anniversary of VE Day and the Liberation of\u00a0the Netherlands, riders will trace the route of the Canadian Army through the Scheldt estuary as they pushed their way through heavy opposition on the path to Victory. The ride will culminate in Nijmegen.<\/p>

The participants, composed of Canadians from all walks of life, will be fundraising in support of the life changing programs Wounded Warriors Canada funds nationally to assist of\u00a0Canada's\u00a0ill and injured Canadian Armed Forces members and their families.<\/p>

Scott Maxwell, Executive Director of Wounded Warriors Canada, commented, \"This summer, in\u00a0France, we witnessed the incredible impact our Battlefield Bike Ride had on Canadians. These events bring us together as one, commemorating our military history while raising awareness and funds to support the life changing programs we fund across\u00a0Canada.\"<\/p>

The 2015 Battlefield Bike Ride is open to all Canadians and registration begins on\u00a0Monday, October 27th<\/sup>. For complete ride information visit:\u00a0<\/b>www.bbr15.ca<\/a><\/b><\/p><\/div>
