2019 Kyle Petty Ride Podcast

The Caruso And Wade Podcast

This episode features interviews from the start of the 25th anniversary Kyle Petty Ride that began in Seattle, Washington and went through Florida. The Kyle Petty Charity Ride Across America began in 1995. The riders -- 250 in all -- took part in the ride's longest event as they went 3,700 miles from May 3-11. The ride benefited Victory Junction camp for chronic and critically ill children in Randleman, North Carolina.

“This has been on our radar screen for a number of years, but we kind of saved it for the 25th,” Petty says. “We wanted the 25th to be something special — the longest, going corner to corner, the most bikes we’ve had in forever. We’re going to some new places and we’re going to some old places that have been favorites of the riders through the years that we have fond memories of. … We just thought, hey, the 25th. Might as well blow it out big-time, man, and do it corner to corner.”
