Welcome!
Ride for a Reason 2008 is a group which will cross the United States by bicycle, from Chincoteague, VA to San Diego, CA. Our goal is to have an unforgettable adventure. Traveling in an eco-friendly manner and practicing good stewardship the whole way through, with a group of people inexperienced in long distance touring, we will also be raising as much money as possible to donate to humanitarian causes in Zimbabwe. By next year, over half of the population will be reliant on emergency food aid, something we struggle to even imagine, but still, we will be asking others to take a moment to consider this reality. We feel we have the resources, friends, family, and inspiration to help out where help is so badly needed.
