Laurie and Molly began their journey, The Long Ride Home, on May 25th, 2015 in Tempe, Arizona, with one goal: Travel 10,000 miles, through two countries, to raise money for Boulder Crest Retreat for Military & Veteran Wellness!!

Article 7 in a multiple-series story:

After traveling thousands of miles, through two countries, across 19 states and over a period of exactly 100 days, Laurie Enright and Molly Michael steered their Triumph Bonneville’s through the heart of downtown Warrenton, Virginia amid cheers and waving flags. The mother-daughter team came to a final stop outside Molly’s Irish Pub and were welcomed back by peers, colleagues and other local Long Ride Home supporters. VMSI’s Senior Vice President, Ken Konkol and Senior Project Analyst, Emily Wilson, greeted Laurie and Molly at their home coming on September 1, 2015.

VMSI couldn’t be happier for Laurie and Molly for completing the Long Ride Home and raising awareness of the trials Veterans face upon their return from duty. This unique campaign also promotes the noticeable need for the creation of more foundations like Boulder Crest Retreat which utilize alternative therapies to support Veterans on their “Long Ride Home”.

VMSI is extremely grateful to have been a part of such an inspiring undertaking and we are so proud of Laurie and Molly for spreading the word about Boulder Crest Retreat in such a magnificent way!
