Phoenix Ride for Kids

For all of you Phoenix area riders, if you are looking for someplace to ride on Sunday, October 16th, consider attending the Phoenix ride for kids. This is a Honda sponsored charity ride to support the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation. It is an escorted ride (State Police escort).

Location:
Desert Ridge High School
10045 E Madero Ave.
Mesa, AZ 85212

Registration opens at 8:00am, ride leaves at 10:00am, rain or shine. Ride lasts between 1.5 to 2 hours. Minimum donation is $35, and includes beverages, breakfast pastries, and a light lunch when the ride returns to the High School.

I have attended the last two years. Last year I rode the SWing, and was the only scooter at the event (around 200 bikes). I think we can do better than that.

If you want more information, go to www.rideforkids.org or call 800-253-6530. This is a national program involving about 40 cities nationwide. Phoenix is one of the last due to the summer heat.

See you there!

Thanks for posting this, Gary! I am in Tempe most weekends visiting my fiancée. I think we can be there. Does the $35 cover both riders or do you have to donate for each one?
