EPIC RIDES

FOR A CAUSE

We are currently raising funds for IGHL (Independent Group Home Living), a vital organization that provides dignity, care, and opportunity for individuals with special needs. This cause is deeply personal—our cofounder Matthew’s brother, Michael, lives with a rare syndrome and benefits from the support and compassion that IGHL provides every single day. By donating, you are not only helping us pedal toward healthier, more connected communities, but you are also ensuring that individuals like Michael receive the care and respect they deserve.

Join us for the Night LEAD UP Ride at Cathedral Pines!

Kick off the Long Island Mountain Bike Festival weekend with an epic night ride under the stars.

Friday, October 17 at 6 PM – 12 AM

Guided rides will depart every hour, so there’s always a group to ride with. Don’t forget your lights—night riding offers a whole new level of adventure. After the ride, refuel with free pizza, and if you're up for more fun, camping is available on-site to make it a full weekend experience.
