Virtual Ride for Major Taylor Project
November 7 - 14, 2020
This Virtual Ride for Major Taylor Project is a peer to peer fundraising event. It is one of Cascade's biggest annual fundraisers for the Major Taylor Project youth educational programs. This ride is part of our week long series of "Lighting a Path Forward" events. We are looking at what the bicycling community and industry are doing to support the greater community and how they are changing to be more inclusive. Learn more and register for our online events here.
About Major Taylor: Marshall “Major” Taylor was a Black athlete and cycling legend who was one of the greatest bicyclists of his era, setting numerous world records and winning a World Championship--all while battling racism throughout his career from the late 1800s to early 1900s. He was an international superstar whose superhuman talents were as well-known in his era as LeBron James or Serena Williams are today. We are asking folks who participate to ride 75 miles over the course of a week in honor of Major Taylor's 75-mile one day race in Indianapolis, in which he pushed himself and battled extreme adversity but won in remarkable fashion.
Join this incredible fundraising event and not only will you get on your bike during this fall weather, but you will also support a great cause! We are asking each participant to raise or donate $200 minimum for this week-long event. We know you can raise more so don't stop at the minimum.
Please note that you may make a general sponsorship purchase here. Please send your name or business logo for recognition to connies@cascade.org.
You may also make a straight Individual Rider Donation to support this event without joining the peer to peer "Join Me" website platform. However, in order to best support the fundraiser and our community outreach support of this program; we are hopeful that you will engage in the "Join Me" event on the Virtual Ride for Major Taylor Project Register Here page. This will give you the opportunity to share our work and your support with your family, friends and network. Thank you for your continued support of Cascade and the Major Taylor Project program.
Thank you to our sponsors:
