World TEAM's adaptive cycling challenge rides from Arlington to Gettysburg, May 15–17, with a bold new $1 million goal

Over 350 cyclists–including veterans living with paralysis, limb loss, blindness, PTSD, and traumatic brain injuries–will roll out of Crystal City on May 16 for one of the most powerful events hosted by nonprofit World TEAM (The Exceptional Athlete Matters).

Face of America: Gettysburg, now in its twenty-first year, is a 110-mile adaptive cycling challenge that ends at the hallowed grounds of Gettysburg, PA. Presented by the Osaic Foundation, the ride unites military veterans, adaptive athletes, and civilians for what organizers call “proof of what is possible.”

“We value both the inspiration and inclusion aspects of this annual cycling challenge,” said Stacy O’Keeffe, president and chair of the Arizona-based Osaic Foundation. “Our own team of riders, comprised of Osaic employees and financial advisors, will join with others as we support adaptive athletes and celebrate the service of veterans and first responders who participate.”

This year’s event carries its most ambitious goal yet: raising $1 million to ensure adaptive athletes can participate fully—including travel grants, free hotel rooms, and meals—regardless of their financial situation.
