Wounded Warriors roll in

About 50 combat-wounded service members will bicycle through Key West on Saturday in the Wounded Warrior Project's Soldier Ride.

They will bike from Boca Chica Field at 11 a.m. to arrive by noon at Truman Waterfront, where Mayor Craig Cates and military leaders will hold a welcome ceremony. Supporters are encouraged to line the streets leading to the waterfront to cheer on the veterans. The public may participate in the charity "Red, White and Blue Ride" around town with the veterans afterward. Cost is $20.

For more information, visit www.soldierride.org, call 305-293-2027 or 305-240-1136.
