Only A Few Weeks Left To Donate To The Triple Five Tour Ride To Recovery 

 Scottsdale, AZ - The Road 2 Recovery Foundation is proud to  announce the first annual 
“Triple Five Tour Ride to Recovery” road bike tour during the week of September
10-15, 2007 to benefit injured MX/SX riders of the past and present. The ride will
begin at the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco California and will end some 555
miles away in Carlsbad California. The ride will follow nearly the same path as the
“Tour of California” bicycle race that is held yearly. The ride is the brainchild
of THOR MX’s very own Victor Sheldon. “I have wanted to do this ride for a long
time, and I finally made up my mind to just do it.” said Sheldon. Since committing
himself to this Sheldon has enlisted the help of friends in and out of the MX industry
including Michael Sleeter, Todd Jacobs, and D.L. Wood. 555 miles in five days is
similar to the Tour De France and the riders will be riding nearly 110 miles each
day. “I am excited to see people being so unselfish and working so hard to try and
help out our injured riders,” said Jimmy Button, co-founder of R2R. R2R is accepting
donations for the ride that will be turned around and distributed directly to our
fallen riders. You can log on to www.road2recovery.com and pledge any amount you wish
for the ride.

The Road 2 Recovery Foundation would like to thank the following sponsors for making
this event possible: Chuck Franklin, Davey Coombs from Racer X, Iron from Cytomax,
Todd Hayes from Oakley, THOR MX, Dan from Squardra, and Randy Richardson from Michelin
Tires.

The Road 2 Recovery Foundation is dedicated to helping AMA licensed motocross members
with financial assistance if they sustain career- ending injuries as well as providing
motivational, emotional and spiritual support to these individuals and their families.
