Why We Host This Ride

The Kenosha Racine Bike Club is hosting a recreational ride for all ages to support bicycling in the Racine and Kenosha Counties.   In 2009, the proceeds of this ride will support the following groups:

The Earn-a-Bike program run by RECycle in Racine

RECycle, the Root River Environmental Education Community Center, promotes environmental education and offers equipment rental, including bicycles, for use on and around the Root River and Lake Michigan.  They also teach children ages 10-17 years old basic bicycle maintenance and safety as a means to help them learn how to be more responsible.

Washington Park Velodrome

The Washington Park Velodrome, operated by the Kenosha Velodrome Association, is the oldest operating velodrome in the USA. The velodrome is a 333 meter asphalt track nestled in a bowl-shaped natural terrain in Kenosha.  The Kenosha Velodrome Association hosts Citizen Stock Bike Races.  Proceeds from the 2009 KR Bike Club annual ride will be given to the Kenosha Velodrome Association for maintenance of the Velodrome and to purchase loaner bikes.

Bicycle Federation of Wisconsin

One dollar of each registration will go directly to this 501(c)(3) education and advocacy membership-based organization dedicated to making Wisconsin a better place to bicycle.
