2021 Spring Classic Bike Challenge Goes Virtual During the Month of MayWe are excited to announce that the Spring Classic Bike Challenge is going virtual this year. This means that you have the ability to ride anytime, anywhere you would like, and still support our cause!
Ride between May 1, 2021 and May 31, 2021 and log your miles as you go. You don't have to do all the mileage in one day, so this is a great way to push yourself and achieve a larger goal! Click here to register to ride your bike, e-bike, stationary bike, or wheelchair in our virtual bike ride. We will send everyone who registers a tee shirt with our awesome new bike pony logo and a Positive Strides face mask. While you're there you may order one of our festive bike jerseys pictured here. Want a REAL challenge? Over the course of 31 days we have distances everywhere from 31 miles (ride a mile a day), all the way up to the Ultimate Challenge of 1000 miles in 31 days. Ride as much, or as little, as you like and the system will keep track of what you log for you! Want to make a larger impact for the Positive Strides program? Consider fundraising to support our cause! You can even link a Facebook Fundraiser right to your profile! We hope that you will join us, even if it is virtually, and get some miles on your bike for a worthy cause! |

CANCELED: 2020 Spring Classic Bike TourSaturday, April 18, 2020
CANCELED! The Spring Classic Bike Tour scheduled for April 18th has regrettably been canceled due to precautions around COVID-19. As you can imagine, this is a real blow to the program, as the Bike Tour is our biggest fundraiser. The Bike Committee will be meeting (virtually) to iron out the details of refunds, so if you have already registered, please stay tuned, we will have that information for you as soon as possible. In the meantime, stay healthy and maintain that social distance. We look forward to seeing you next year. Support our biggest fundraiser of the year.
