We believe in the vast courage and resilience of our veterans. The Warrior 100K underscores the importance of sports as a rehabilitation component for our men and women injured on the front lines.

Watch how the W100k honors our Veterans

W100K

As part of the Bush Institute's Military Service Initiative, the Warrior 100K highlights the bravery and sacrifice of our Nations warriors and recognizes organizations that support America’s veterans. 

Servicemen and women wounded in the global war on terror join President George W. Bush for a 100-kilometer mountain bike ride. For wounded warriors from America’s military, spending a weekend riding mountain bikes in the Warrior 100K will offer an opportunity to meet other veterans, share meals, share life stories, as well as ride and cross the finish line with their former commander-in-chief. 

Alumni riders only will be invited to participate in the 2017 W100K.  Please stay tuned for application and date information on the 2018 W100K.

Serving Our Veterans

By addressing the challenges veterans face, we unleash the potential of a generation of resourceful, determined, and experienced leaders.

Many of the 2.5 million veterans who have served since 9/11 often return home to face challenges transitioning back into civilian life.  We have a duty to understand and serve those who volunteered to wear the uniform in defense of our Nation.
