The Rolling Barrage – Testimonies

How do I begin without starting at the beginning of my journey, of lost acceptance, of healing. 3 years ago I heard an old friend, Jim Gordon, a soldier I served with was doing this ride across Canada and would be in Barrie. I made a point of meeting him for breakfast...

I became aware of The Rolling Barrage in 2019 when Warren and I became a couple. He told me about this ride that he had been a part of and it was bringing awareness and breaking the stigma of PTSD amongst first responders, veterans and serving members. I thought what...

On the top of my bucket list was to ride my bike across Canada. While working at Highland Valley Copper mines I met Scott and Leslie. When I heard of Scott’s plan to ride coast to coast to bring awareness to PTSD, I thought it was a great idea! And I wanted to join up...

I’ve been asked to put some thoughts together about my experience on my first full pull with TRB.  A tough ask for someone with the attention span of a knat, but come with me on my version of my journey thus far… My first involvement with TRB was in 2020 when I...

2023 is my fourth year with TRB, having moved from my initial one day ride to this year’s “Full Pull”. It wasn’t until 2022, when I did the ride from Halifax to North Bay, that I finally “got it”. This isn’t a ride solely for the purpose of raising money: this ride is...

I could not recommended enough to someone to take part in TRB. If you come out for a day you will be out for a great ride. If you come out for a couple of days you will be out for an experience. But if you have the guts and determination to be part of the Full Pull...

For me, what started out as attending and supporting a friends vision in his journey to help veterans and first responders dealing with PTSD, made me come to the realization that I too struggled with the same issues not even realizing that it had already taken a...

My journey with The Rolling Barrage began in 2017 when Scott Casey asked if I could help on this “coast to coast” motorcycle ride. There was few of us in the planning group and in many ways when all was said and done collectively we did it. I don’t ride a motorcycle...
