Country radio personality Bryan "B-Dub" Washington has completed the fourth annual "B-Dub's Longest Ride," raising more than $51,000 for the Fisher House Foundation.

B-Dub, host of the nationally syndicated "B-Dub Radio," traveled 6,393 miles by motorcycle through the U.S. and Canada from July 26 through August 9. The ride surpassed its $50,000 fundraising goal, with donations reaching $51,409 so far.

The route included stops in Montana, North Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, South Dakota, Idaho, New York and Ontario, where B-Dub connected with listeners, affiliates, local communities and fellow motorcycle riders before returning home to Portland, OR.

"We're incredibly grateful to B-Dub for putting in the miles, the time and the heart behind 'The Longest Ride,'" said Fisher House Foundation President Dave Coker. "What he raised will help military and veteran families, but just as importantly, he helped spread awareness of Fisher House so more families know we're here when they need us."

Fisher House Foundation provides housing and support for military and veteran families while loved ones receive medical treatment.

The fundraiser has generated more than $112,000 over its four-year run. B-Dub raised approximately $4,070 during the inaugural ride in 2023, followed by $18,035 in 2024, $38,713 in 2025 and more than $51,000 this year.

"This started four years ago as an idea to combine something I love, riding motorcycles, with an opportunity to do some good," said B-Dub. "I don't know that I ever imagined we'd be talking about more than $51,000 in a single year."

He added that while this year's ride has ended, fundraising will continue. "The motorcycle is parked, but we're not closing the books just yet," B-Dub said. "The ride is over. The mission isn't."

"B-Dub Radio" is nationally syndicated by Skyview Networks. Post-ride donations are still being accepted through B-Dub's Longest Ride.
