Cycle for a Cause

We've been announcing this event at all the Nimbus premiers and hoping to gather donations that way. So thanks to all of you who have contributed or helped the contribution cause. Newschoolers just did a story about the ride. Head on over there to read how they're doing and where they are at.

The ski industry has seen many tragedies in the past few years, from spinal cord injuries to athlete deaths. Now is a time to give back with awareness to the general public, in our case, we are giving back as fellow athletes and friends. A group of professional skiers and other members of the ski industry are partaking in a charity bike ride during the month of October from Seattle to San Diego on the Pacific Coast Highway/101 to benefit the Riley Poor Foundation, The Shane McConkey Fund and Billy Poole Foundation.

Links containing information about these foundations are the following:

Riley Poor
Riley’s Blog
Nike 6.0’s Riley Site
The Transplant Fund

Shane McConkey
The Shane McConkey Fund
Make a Wish Foundation

Billy Poole
The Billy Poole Ski Foundation

Through this ride we are seeking to have individuals, businesses, major corporations, etc. support our injured and fallen friends and icons in the ski industry. We will need as much support as possible.

To donate to this cause, click on the image above, or here.

This ride is open to anyone, friends, family, strangers, fans…anyone.

Hope to see you on the road!
