Held annually during Bike Month in May, the Community Wellness Biking Event, Ride and Stride for Rockville is all about choosing your fun! Known to many returning riders as Ride for Rockville, you can choose from a 12-mile "family-fun" ride or a 25-mile "challenging" ride. To include more interests and abilities, we've added the "stride" so you can choose from a 2-mile or 5-mile fun run or walk as well. This event is great for families, friends or those just looking to explore some new trails and get some exercise!
The Ride and Stride for Rockville is a benefit to raise money for Rockville's kids. The City of Rockville is committed to providing a safe environment for our children whether walking or biking. Therefore, all proceeds from this event go to the Rockville Recreation Fund and Rockville Bike Fund, which provide recycled bikes, helmets, lights, locks and safety programs to the children of Rockville. The Rockville Bikeway Fund supports programs that promote safe bicycling in Rockville by providing safety gear, helmets, recycled bikes and safety programs to the children of Rockville. The Rockville Recreation Fund provides financial assistance to children who otherwise would not be able to participate in our programs and activities. Funds are available to residents within the corporate boundaries of Rockville who meet the financial requirements. Hope to see you at Ride n' Stride next year! |
