Hello, my name is Jose Sanchez, a proud U.S. military combat veteran, motorcycle enthusiast, and the creator of Cage Free Moto.
I’m on a mission to honor the 22 veterans we lose each day to suicide. To raise awareness and support, I’m taking on a bold and personal journey: riding the Medal of Honor Highway (U.S. Route 20) coast to coast 22 times, starting May 22, 2025.
This effort, called The Valor Ride, isn't just about the miles, it’s about creating visibility around veteran mental health, showing resilience in action, and letting our brothers and sisters know they are not forgotten.
To help make this ride possible, Indian Motorcycle has generously donated a touring motorcycle for the journey, a powerful show of support that adds momentum and credibility to this cause.
Along the way, I’ll be documenting every loop on my YouTube channel, Cage Free Moto, to inspire others and raise both awareness and donations to support veteran services. This GoFundMe is to help keep the wheels turning, covering essential costs like fuel, food, and lodging throughout the journey.
Any remaining funds after the ride will be donated to the Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association (CVMA) chapter 33-9, a nonprofit organization made up of veterans supporting veterans through camaraderie and community outreach.
Thank you for supporting this cause and helping me make this mission a reality. Together, we can ride with purpose and honor those who served.
