Funding Local Youth Programs
Every dollar raised during the ride goes directly to programs that serve kids in Dane County, helping the Boys and Girls Club open doors to learning, mentorship, and safe spaces.
Our Mission
Bike for BGC is a community cycling fundraiser that brings together riders, volunteers, and sponsors in support of the Boys and Girls Club of Dane County. Each year, participants take to the road to raise awareness and resources for youth programs that make a real, lasting difference in our neighborhoods.
Building a Cycling Community
Teams of coworkers, families, and friends train together, ride together, and celebrate together. The event is a gathering point for anyone who believes in giving back.
Inspiring Volunteer Action
Beyond the saddle, neighbors step up as volunteers who keep the route safe, the rest stops stocked, and the spirit of the ride alive from start to finish.
The Impact You Create
When you ride, donate, or volunteer, you help sustain the programs that the Boys and Girls Club of Dane County runs year-round for local youth. The ride is a single day; the support it generates echoes through every after-school program, summer camp, and mentorship opportunity that follows.
Riders come from neighborhoods, workplaces, and clubs across the region, united by a shared commitment to community. From the earliest training rides to the final cheer at the finish line, Bike for BGC is about showing up for kids who need it most.
