Thank you so much for considering a donation for my ride for Calmer Choice! I am so fortunate to work for an organization that is dedicated to creating a better world for communities through mindfulness. I am riding the 68 mile course to raise as much money and awareness as possible!
Your contribution is crucial to ensuring we can provide quality program to schools and the community. THANK YOU!
Calmer Choice - Second Summer Cycle 2024
Cape Cod's Second Summer Cycle
A Charity Ride Benefitting 19 Cape Cod Non-Profit Organizations
The Second Summer Cycle is the perfect event for riders of all levels, offering a picturesque journey through 11 historic Cape Cod towns and a strong commitment to rider safety. Three distances are being offered, 33, 69, and 100 miles with the final stop being a celebration at Motta Field in beautiful Provincetown. Dance to the music of Sarah Swain and the Oh Boys, use your $30 worth of vouchers provided as part of your registration to purchase food from 4 different food trucks, to include cold beverages provided by Barnstable Brewing Company, with Second Summer Cycle cans as memorabilia!
Nineteen Cape Cod non-profit organizations will benefit from the monies generated by the riders, each of whom is asked to raise at least $250 for their non-profit of choice, or to be disseminated across all 19 charities, in addition to the registration fee.
Ample hydration and nutrition stops will be strategically positioned along the course, along with medical and physical therapy stations equipped with tents and tables to ensure participants' comfort and well-being.
Don't miss your chance to be part of the Second Summer Cycle on September 15th, 2024!
