Please support me as I RideUNITED for the Second Summer Cycle. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of others to make sure each person in our community is embraced and connected -- with a roof over their head, food on the table, and access to quality child care, education and wellness services.

I ride in support and solidarity for those who cannot. For those who physically, emotionally, intellectually, or financially are unable too. For those we've loved and lost and for anyone feeling left behind, unseen or unheard. Join my journey and follow my progress as I go from couch potatoe to saavy cyclist... a dollar and day at a time!

With heartfelt gratitude,

Evy

A Charity Ride across Cape Cod

WHAT

Be part of the inaugural Second Summer Cycle! This is an exciting new event led by the Cape Cod Chamber of Commerce-- a fully supported, cape wide, charity ride benefiting 19 nonprofit organizations on Cape Cod. Ride a route of your choosing: 30, 60+ or 100 miles on beautiful back roads (and the rail trail if you choose).

Participate in a celebration at the end of the ride with food, music and Barnstable Brewing's Second Summer Cycle Cans as memorabilia. Enjoy a special day of riding the Cape landscape while also benefiting tens of thousands of Cape Codders.

You don’t want to miss it!
