The Bike-A-Thon is our biggest annual fundraiser, bringing together more than 500 riders and 120 volunteers in a ride for social change!

Ride alongside friends and family on our 10-mile, 25-mile, or 50-mile routes. Each route will be fully supported with rest stops and route markings along the way. We also offer additional rider incentives for extra fundraising, catered breakfast and lunch, prizes for top fundraisers and teams, and an expanded after-party!

When you ride with us in the Bike-A-Thon, you're not just making memories - your fundraising efforts are directly supporting our local and global work. Because of riders like you, we're able to:

• Employ young people as Youth Apprentices;
• Advocate for safer streets for all;
• Provide free bike repair events to Boston families;
• Serve as a Hub for our community through our mission-driven bike shop;
• Ship thousands of bikes to our partners in the Global South, and;
• Process thousands of donated bikes for sale in our mission-driven bike shop, for donation to people experiencing economic hardship, and for use in our youth programs.

Bike-A-Thon After Party

Riders, please invite your family, friends, neighbors and your Bike-A-Thon sponsors to join us after you complete your BAT ride for the Bike-A-Thon community after-party! As always, we will have a delicious catered lunch for all Bike-A-Thon riders and volunteers. For everyone else in the broader community, we will have food and ice cream trucks, live music, a bike expo with booths and demos from local bike clubs as well as bike industry partners, and community oriented booths and activities from partner organizations.

We’ll have something for everyone - all you have to do is show up and spread the word. Our after party will run from 12:30pm to 4pm at Stonybrook Field - we can’t wait to celebrate with you!
