HOW IT WORKS:

Step 1 – START A TEAM, JOIN A TEAM OR GO EXTREME

Start or join a team—New this year! Team Captains can welcome an unlimited number of participants to join your team. Each team will get one bike for every 4-6 riders. Rock your way to success with a $25 sign-up fee that kickstarts your fundraising goals—get fundraising and watch your page soar!
Pick a team name—you can change it anytime.
Fundraising goal: You set your goal! If you set your personal goal at $200 (that's just 8 people donating $25, or 4 people giving you $50 each—you get the picture, but don't stop there!). These are just goals, so do your best but don't stress if you don't hit them. Some crush it, while others may not know where to begin. Remember that every participant brings something different and every dollar helps build a Heart Strong community!
Team fundraising goal: Aim high and exceed your goal—more teammates = more opportunity to benefit the new Heart Strong Grant!
Party On + Off The bike for 3 hours—ride hard or hardly ride (or talk someone into riding for you), you split the time on the bike however the team likes! We just ask your team keeps the wheels in motion.
Extreme participants: One rider commits to riding all 3 hours

Step 2 - Raise Mad Cash

Teams have until Sunday, March 9th at 11:59pm to keep raising funds and crush those goals! READ MORE about fundraising, goals, and creative ways to fundraise.

Step 3 – Plan

Get creative with your team theme/costume (from elaborate to simple matching t-shirts—we've seen it all!). The more vim and vigor you put in, the more you'll get out of it.
Prizes will be awarded to teams with the highest fundraising total, most spirit, best costumes, distance challenges, and more!
