The ride March 15 starts in Peoria at Arrowhead Harley Davidson, 16130 N. Arrowhead Fountains Center Dr., and ends at the Roadrunner Restaurant & Saloon, 47801 N. Black Canyon Hwy, in New River.

The Phoenix Wounded Vet Run is an event put on by They Fought We Ride, a nonprofit that raises money to support local combat veterans in Arizona.

The event's 2025 honoree is Brian Saaristo, a purple heart veteran. All proceeds go to Saaristo to honor him and his fight for freedom.
