Ride POSTPONED- to be rescheduled this fall

The Rising From Ashes Charity ride is canceled until further notice. We are hoping to be able to reschedule the ride to this fall. All registrants have been contacted, and registration fees will be refunded. We are sorry for the inconvenience, but hope that you will be able to ride with us this fall.

Call for volunteers!

We are looking for a few volunteers for the ride. We need a couple of people to man water stops for our thirsty riders on Saturday, June 1st. If you know someone who may be interested please pass this information along! All of our volunteers get free entry into the Rising From Ashes After Party at The Wheel Cyclery where you can cool off with refreshments. You can contact Heather or Jen at (816)455-2453 to sign up to volunteer. Thank you so much for your help!

Rising From Ashes is Coming!

In just 21 days...

Riders from all over Kansas City and the Midwest will join forces behind a single cause that unites us all. The joy that cycling brings is something we can all relate to, from the wind on your face to the weightless feeling you get coasting down  hill, we've all experienced that feeling of youthful exuberance! Team Rwanda Cyclists keep that feeling close at heart during their training and racing, they know all too well how lucky they are to not just be cyclists, but simply to be alive and have survived one the the world's most devastating genocides. 

         June 1st you can help support and encourage these Rwandan cyclists by riding the Rising From Ashes Charity Ride- there is something for every level of cyclist. Choose from 25, 40, or 62 miles and enjoy food and refreshments at The Wheel Cyclery at noon following the ride. Register by May 13th for just $20, or by May 31st for $25. You can access Online Registration here, where you can process your credit card by clicking the Checkout with PAYPAL link at the bottom of the page. Or come by the shop and drop off your registration forms there, where you can pay with cash, check, or charge.
