THE COUNTRY OF ECUADOR RECENTLY SUFFERED A 7.8 EARTHQUAKE
THIS IS A SEVERE HUMANITARIAN CRISIS IN A COUNTRY THAT WE, AS ADVENTURE RIDERS, HAVE FALLEN IN LOVE WITH
Prior to embarking on "the ride of my life" I spent well over 10 years assisting in disasters and emergency response around the world. I know a thing or two about what happens in mass casualty events of this size, and at this very moment we are uniquely qualified to assist in a very special way
Last month I joined a local motorcycle club called the Brosters located in Quito, Ecuador, to help distribute locally sourced relief supplies to the victims at "ground zero" in Ecuador. In partnership with RawHyde, the Brosters and the Coalition of Hope Foundation, we are asking for people to help spread the word, donate goods for the next relief shipment, donate funds to the Coalition of hope, or lend a hand down in Ecuador if you can come!
Operation Equador
You can offer your support in a variety of ways comfortable for YOU. No matter what your current situation, there’s a way YOU can help. Monetary contributions are being accepted through the Coalition of Hope. We need supplies to fill up the next shipping container. We’ll need hands IN Ecuador to help unload and distribute! If you can't donate but you have the time to ride and to help, let us know! Ecuador has opened it's doors and we can put you in touch with people organising support teams. Please don't hesitate to private message me our our Facebook or email me directly at Brad@TheRideOfMyLife.net if you need more information.
We have arranged Free shipping of relief supplies from Long Beach to Ecuador, via RawHyde Adventures' very generous logistics partners that support their Dakar Tours in South America. Once those shipping containers are full we go BACK to Ecuador to continue distribution

This is an amazing opportunity for the motorcycling community of the United States, to reach out to a sister nation in their critical time of need. I am really looking forward to participating in this overwhelming effort to support an amazingly generous motorcycle club, located just hours from the devastation and help them deliver life-saving items, tools and relief supplies
