Spokes for Hope is a 10 mile charity bike ride to raise money for Voices of Hope, a Lincoln non-profit organization that provides 24 hour-a-day crisis intervention, advocacy and prevention services for domestic violence, sexual assault and incest.
The bike ride takes place on Saturday, August 29th, beginning at Holmes Lake at 9:00 a.m. for check-in and concluding with lunch from Pepe’s Bistro and Heoya’s food trucks once everyone has finished the route (the ten mile circuit takes about an hour, but parents riding with children are encouraged to stop at Phares or Mendoza Parks for a shorter route).
Spokes for Hope has been made possible by the generous sponsorship of the following Lincoln businesses: Screen Ink, Salty Dog Cyclery, Printing Plus, Liberty First Credit Union, Dish Restaurant, Sebastian’s Table, the Mary Riepma Ross Media Arts Center, Russ’s Market, and Open Harvest Coop.
Riders can register online at www.spokes4hopelincoln.org or by printing and mailing the registration form (available on the website) along with a check to Voices of Hope, 2545 N Street, Lincoln, NE 68510. Registration is $15 for adults ($20 with a shirt) and $10 for children 5-12 ($15 with a shirt). Children under 5 ride free. Riders’ entire registration fee will be donated to Voices of Hope to help cover operating costs.
