The 32nd Annual Maumee River Ride is back—and after last year’s incredible turnout, we’re rolling into 2026 with even more energy, more impact, and yes… more parking.

This event continues to be our largest club fundraiser of the year, and thanks to your generosity in 2025, we were able to donate 70% of all proceeds to bikes for kids. You’ve already seen the lives we’re changing. As you plan your ride this year, we invite you to once again consider our mission and the difference your contribution makes.

Note: Online registration is preferred. SAG Support will be provided by Spoke Life Cycles. There are public rest stops and gas stations located on the Ride with GPS route maps below (see links in the Ride Options section).
