What is Ride Out of the Darkness™?
Ride Out of the Darkness™ is more than just a ride—it’s a nationwide movement of hope, healing, and connection for those affected by mental health struggles, suicide loss, and PTSD.
This event exists to show people they are seen, heard, and never alone. Too often, those battling mental health challenges feel invisible, unheard, and without support. Our rides create a visible and powerful statement that no one has to struggle in silence—we see you, we hear you, and we are riding for you.
How It Works
🚗 Anyone Can Ride – Open to motorcycles, cars, trucks, and more, these rides symbolize unity and strength in the fight against mental health stigma.
🏁 Every Ride Ends in a Rally – At each ride’s final stop, we host a community event with guest speakers, live music, mental health resources, and healing activities to foster support, connection, and action.
🎗️ Riding for a Purpose – Every mile we travel is a pledge to raise awareness, funds, and hope for those struggling with mental health challenges.
We Are Taking These Rides Nationwide
Ride Out of the Darkness™ is not a one-time event—it is an ongoing movement happening all over the United States.
Our goal is to expand this initiative across the country, so that anyone, anywhere can host a ride and create awareness in their own community. However, because this is an official Love Surrounds You™ event, all rides must be coordinated with us to ensure consistency, safety, and impact.
