Ride of Valor Returns: Honor Southern Tier Veterans with Every Mile
The engines will be rumbling with purpose on Saturday, August 23, 2025, as the 3rd Annual Ride of Valor hits the road in support of Twin Tiers Honor Flight. This isn’t just a ride, this is a tribute to the heroes among us.
Start Your Morning with a Mission
The day begins at the Chenango Bridge Fire Department with ride registration at 8:30 a.m. and kickstands up at 9:30 a.m. sharp. From there, riders will make a powerful stop at the New York State Veterans Home in Oxford, a moment to honor our veterans face to face before finishing the ride at the Airport Inn for an afternoon of good food and great people.
Spiedies, Raffles, and Music
Once the ride ends, the celebration begins. Enjoy a Spiedie dinner at noon, try your luck with basket raffles and 50/50 drawings, and soak in some great music.
All Are Welcome
You don’t need to ride to be part of the day. This event is open to the public, and every ticket sold supports Twin Tiers Honor Flight, a 100% volunteer run nonprofit that flies veterans to Washington, D.C. to visit the memorials built in their honor.
Riders/Passengers: $25 (includes dinner)
Dinner-only tickets: $25 per person
