Motorcyclist rides coast to coast for military families

WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — A motorcycle rider rolled into Wilmington Thursday with one thing on his mind; helping military families. Adam Sandoval and his Chihuahua Scooter are working on visiting every Harley Davidson Dealership in America.

The pair stopped at the one on Market Street. In honor of the ride, the dealership is collecting donations for the American Legion Legacy Scholarship fund to support kids who have lost parents during active duty in the military.

“I don’t think there’s anybody more deserving of our energy, time and focus than our military and it’s not just the soldiers it’s the family that make a big sacrifice too,” said Sandoval.

This is Sandoval’s and Scooter’s 14th month on the road, and this is their 5th coast to coast ride.
