Description

Embrace the thrill of Alberta’s Greatest Bike Run – Fresh Start Recovery’s Annual 12-Stop Ride for Recovery! In our 16th year, we are excited to have Calgary Harley-Davidson as our presenting sponsor once again. This family-friendly ride aims to highlight recovery from addiction and the positive effects of recovery on individuals, families, and the community. Each year, we create a unique event with fun and engaging stops. This event is our biggest fundraiser, raising awareness and funds to help more individuals and their families recover from addiction. This year, the ride will be held on Saturday, August 24th, 2024, with registration beginning at 8:00 a.m. Our scavenger hunt-style ride starts with a hearty breakfast at Fresh Start Recovery Centre (411 – 41 Ave NE, Calgary). After breakfast, over 250 riders and their passengers hit the road for 400 km of some of the best riding in the country. Riders will head out armed with their first clue to steer them to the first of multiple stops on a day of adventure through picturesque rural and urban landscapes. Each stop activity unveils a fresh clue leading riders to their next unique experience. The day will end with dinner, the live draw of our motorcycle raffle and 50/50 winners, and a celebration of community. The ride is an opportunity to join our community while travelling through the stops in support of an essential cause.
