The 23rd annual Kyle Petty Charity Ride Across America will be passing through Wyoming this summer.  The ride is one of the most successful and popular charity rides in the country and will be stopping in Cody, Wyoming for the night on Monday May 15th and then making a pit stop in Ten Sleep, WY on May 16, 2017 as the ride rolls across the Cowboy State before stopping again in Deadwood, South Dakota.

The ride is led by former NASCAR driver and NBC Sports Analyst Kyle Petty, as 200+ bikers will embark on a 2,400-mile journey from Portland, Oregon to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to raise funds and awareness for Victory Junction.
