Are you ready to RIDE?!?!?!

Okay, real talk—I’m not ready. Not even close. But guess what? That’s exactly why we start now. The countdown is on, the hammer’s dropped, and the clock is ticking. My excuses are stacking up faster than a teenager dodging chores, but we’re not going to let them win. This is the time to dig deep, set those goals, and take the first steps—no matter how small—toward being ride-ready come July.

Let’s take a moment to celebrate the incredible Micah Gruenwald. As the brother of Koby and a top fundraiser for WOJ for many years, Micah has made cycling not just a hobby but a way of life. We are all so proud to witness Micah’s growth and the profound impact he’s having on the cycling community. It’s amazing to see how far Micah has come – who could have imagined that his dedication would inspire change far beyond our Wheel's family? Yet, here he is, a young dynamo actively making waves.

Welcome, 2025!

The new year is here, bringing fresh opportunities to improve and set new goals. Why not kick off the year by signing up for the Courage Classic and making your first donation to get started? As we enter January, many people set resolutions, and a common one is to ride their bike every day—even if it’s just a small beginning. With plenty of time to train before the event on July 19th, there's no need to rush just yet.

WE DID IT!!!

We finished this year with our highest fundraising dollars yet, scratching the door of $700k!!!! Words cannot emphasize the impact each of you have had on bringing almost $7M to CCBD in our 19 Years. I know when Will told his mom to go out and make a difference, he would say three quarters of a million dollars is a difference! I know we did Mister Will proud this year, and through your perseverance and the love of your communities we rallied as a force. This has always been the difference with this team, HEART, it guides us. We love the ride, and we love the money, but we ask with our hearts, and love pours into our team. And so does the money!
