Event Description
THANK YOU FOR RIDING WITH US FOR OUR SECOND ANNUAL RIDE!
Jack the Bike Man is fundraising to support projects which highlight the positive health benefits of regular cycling, environmental sustainability by using and recycling donated bicycles as well as addressing poverty related issues associated with the lack of transportation.
Our warehouse stages workshops for after school programs, offers a working space for corporate team building exercises and is used for hosting hundreds of volunteers annually.
All proceeds of this annual ride helps fund Jack the Bike Man, Inc. to purchase thousands of bike parts for the refurbishment of the donated bicycles each quarter.
Six thousand bicycles are donated annually, bikes are repaired; many of the parts are taken from seized up bicycles and used on other bicycles.
Our objective is to repair and distribute 4000 bicycles over the next year.

The ride will begin and end at our full service bike repair and retail shop.

A leader vehicle will guide the ride, each group will be followed by a SAG vehicle with parts and supplies for emergencies and roving vehicles will be able to pick up distressed bicycles for riders in trouble.
