Motorcycle Ride for Life planned in Memory of Captain Tim Neild

On June 4, a motorcycle ride planned in Memory of Captain Tim Neild will take place with sign ups at the Candor Town Hall, located at 101 Owego Rd. in Candor, beginning at 9 a.m. Kickstands go up at 10:15 a.m. and the proceeds benefit the Team Timmy Scholarship fund in Memory of Timothy M. Neild.

The ride is $10, and sponsors include Bostwick’s Diner, Home Central, Power & Paddle, and Susquehanna Printers. 

The group will meet at Tim’s grave at 10 a.m. following the registration (walking distance), and a group rider photo will be taken at the Candor Maple Grove Cemetery Military Memorial before the ride begins at 10:15 a.m.

Neild, of Candor, was 37 years old when he died unexpectedly. Neild was an Afghanistan Veteran and a Bronze Star Recipient, and was an active member of the VFW Post #1371 and a member of the honor guard.  

In memory of Captain Timothy Neild, all are invited to join his dad for an all-day motorcycle ride organized by Team Timmy, an effort that educates about brain trauma, connects veterans to resources, and raises awareness of veteran suicide.
