Proudly supporting Lifeline
The 2012 BDR 'National 1 Day Ride' is over and by all accounts was hugely successful in acheiving its goals of raising awareness of depression and suicide prevention. Along the way the nearly 2,000 riders raised $66,000 for Lifeline and just as importantly had a lot of fun. Check out the chatter on the BDR Facebook page & on Twitter.
