    A new Backcountry Discovery Route's initiative created to honor and celebrate U.S. military veterans who ride.

    The program was inspired by BDR Ambassadors and volunteers who are veterans themselves. Having experienced firsthand the healing power of BDR adventures, they wanted to create a dedicated community within BDR where fellow veterans can connect, share stories, and continue the sense of camaraderie that service life builds.

    This program is about more than riding. It’s about connection, support, and rediscovering the joy that comes from exploring new terrain together. Whether you’ve been riding adventure bikes for years or are just beginning to transition from street to dirt, this community welcomes you. The BDR Veterans Program is your place to find others who understand where you’ve been and share your passion for where the road, or trail, leads next.
