What is Pedal For Your Cause?

Do you remember the first time you rode a bicycle? The wind in your face, the unadulterated freedom? Do you know someone with a disability who has never had the opportunity to experience the joy of riding a bicycle?

Pedal For Your Cause is a cycling event that benefits a cycling organization, Assisted Cycling Tours, whose mission it is to get kids with disabilities and their families on bikes. Their goal is to promote family, well-being and independence for all of their participants.

PFYC is also about raising community awareness about people with disabilities. Additionally, it is an opportunity for socialization either as a participant or as a volunteer. We are in our inaugural year, and hope you'll continue to ride with us as we grow.

Participants can help raise additional funds to allow ACT to take families on bike rides. If you are passionate about a particular disability (e.g., Autism, Down Syndrome, TBI, etc.) you can designate any additional funds you raise to have ACT do programming for that particular disability. For more information, see our registration and donation pages for more information.
