Come ride with Kids on Bikes for our first annual fundraising ride!  We are excited to utilize the Air Force Academy for the event headquarters and ride the most beautiful section of the Santa Fe Trail.  There will be three mountain bike ride options utilizing the trail system.  After the rides, there will be a family picnic and lots of fun activities for the kids.  All proceeds from the ride will benefit Kids on Bikes in bringing joy one bike at a time to children in the Pikes Peak Region.  Pledges collected will help sponsor fifth grade students in low income school districts to earn bikes by reaching academic, behavior, and character development goals in our ABC’s program.

Choose from the following rides:

  • 24-mile Challenge – This out-and-back ride begins at the South Entrance of the Air Force Academy and travels North on the Santa Fe Trail to the town of Monument.  Heading north the trail is slightly uphill with an enjoyable return route to take in the views of the Front Range.
  • 16-mile Route – This ride is a better option for beginner to intermediate riders to tour the most scenic part of the Santa Fe Trail through the Air Force Academy.  The ride will head north from the South Entrance of the Air Force Academy with the turn-around point at the North Gate.  There are a few steep sections and thrilling descents to make for a wonderful ride.
  • 4-mile Family Ride – The ride will begin at the South Entrance of the Air Force Academy and head south to a turn-around point at Woodmen Road.  This is a perfect section of trail for families to enjoy a scenic ride for all ages and abilities.
