Fund-raising - Salem, New Hampshire, United States
A group of passionate riders using bicycles to energize and elevate the youth in communities around the world.With the focus on youth and local communities, our goal is to use bicycles as a catalyst to promote real and lasting change; pledging 90% of our fundraising/revenue to this mission.WHY BIKES?FREEDOM: For many of us, our bicycle was our first glimpse at freedom. It allowed us to expand our accessible world from our backyard, to our friends and local businesses. This freedom can engage new opportunities for work, play, and happiness.PHYSICAL and MENTAL HEALTH: There have been many studies proving the benefits of exercise. Bicycling engages the body while freeing the mind. Just riding on familiar streets with the wind in the hair is enough to ease the mind and transport you to another place, even for a short time.ENERGIZING COMMUNITY: With a sense of belonging comes a reactive sense of pride. Where happiness thrives, so does an energy among the community. Whether it is attracting more tourism, watching a supported team race, or just helping bring the community together for an event, bicycles give a push towards promoting economy.
