First Responders & Veterans Taking Ride of Hope for 20th anniversary of 9/11

On Tuesday, Sept. 7, The Quell Foundation will kick off the 9/11 Ride of Hope—a five-day cycling journey to honor those suffering from the physical and emotional exposures associated with Sept. 11, 2001, and its aftermath.

A peloton of 20 cyclists, including active and retired first responders (some of whom responded to the horrific events of 9/11), will travel from the 9/11 Memorial and Museum New York City to Arlington, Va., during the week leading up to the 20th anniversary of the attacks.
