Kyle Petty Charity Ride Announces 21st Anniversary Route The Kyle Petty Charity Ride Across America has announced the route for its 21st Anniversary motorcycle trek, taking place May 2-8, 2015. NBC Sports NASCAR analyst and former NASCAR driver Kyle Petty will lead 200 motorcyclists along the 2,500 mile-route, stretching from Santa Cruz, California to Branson, Missouri, to raise funds and awareness for Victory Junction – a camp created to enrich the lives of children with chronic or life-threatening illnesses. “Each year, we select a route that’s full of breathtaking scenery, while also allowing us to spread the word and build excitement around our mission along the way,” said Petty. “Year after year, the ride creates lasting memories for our riders, most importantly, it provides life-changing opportunities for children at Victory Junction.” Spectators, visitors, and locals along the 2015 route are encouraged to attend one of the ride’s eight overnight stops or daily fuel stops to greet Petty and the riders, purchase ride memorabilia or make a donation to Victory Junction.
