| Come ride with Kids on Bikes for our first annual fund raising ride! We are excited to utilize the Air Force Academy for the event headquarters and ride the most beautiful section of the Santa Fe Trail. There will be three mountain bike ride options utilizing the trail system. After the rides, there will be a family picnic and lots of fun activities for the kids. All proceeds from the ride will benefit Kids on Bikes in bringing joy one bike at a time to children in the Pikes Peak Region. Pledges collected will help sponsor fifth grade students in low income school districts to earn bikes by reaching academic, behavior, and character development goals in our ABC’s program.
Established as a nonprofit organization in 2005, Kids on Bikes (KOB) has provided over 580 bikes to children in the Pikes Peak Region. Recall your first bike and the freedom and confidence that it gave you. Our goal is that these bikes will provide that opportunity and be a motivating force for children to succeed. We seek to enable under-served children to experience the benefits, in freedom, self-confidence, and healthy lifestyle, of owning their first bicycle. Founded by Paige Carmichael and supported by a dedicated board of community leaders, Kids on Bikes designed two powerful programs, ABCs and P.E.D.A.L., to reach deserving children in need of bikes.
