The W100 Starts Tomorrow! (Pres. Bush 43 100K 3 Day Desert Bike Ride w/ Wounded Warriors)
The Bush Center ^ | Sunday, April 24, 2011

Posted on 04/24/2011 8:15:49 PM PDT by kristinn

Tomorrow the W100 will begin with a 12 mile (19.4 km) ride in the heat of the day. A grueling 30 mile (48.3 km) ride will follow on Tuesday, with President Bush and the warriors finishing up the last 20 miles (32.3) on Wednesday. Stay tuned here for pictures from the trail, video of the ride and daily photo albums. Until then, get a sneak peek at some of the rough terrain and trails President Bush and 14 wounded warriors will be taking on over the next three days:

Some of the trail is wide enough for vehicles and several bikes.

Parts of the ride will have to be single-file.

And some of it will be straight uphill!

It will be a long, winding 100 kilometers, so check back for more pictures and video from the trail!

A short video clip of President Bush announcing the 100K can be found here.

Bios of the wounded warriors riding with President Bush can be found here.

Most of us would last two minutes in the West Texas terrain (and heat) — our president and his troopers are truly amazing athletes (and human beings)!

I see Bret Baier Of Fox News Special Report in the first photo. Brit Hume substituted for him yesterday. I hope he will show videos this evening of the event

When you see those guys without arms and legs rising to this amazing physical challenge, it truly is awesome.

These are true HEROES. (ALL of them. :)

That's for sure, onyx. They know the freak in the WH is NOT a CinC.

But they still have one who cares about them. They know it, and WE know it.
