All 2026 Ride Proceeds benefit Spokes Fighting Strokes!

In 2026, we raised $28,474.58 to allow Spokes Fighting Strokes to continue their mission! Thanks to the 155 Rally Registrants, Fundraisers, Donors, Golden Envelope Contest Participants and Event Sponsors for your continued support!

Spokes Fighting Strokes was founded by Dan Zimmerman, who suffered a stroke in 2005 as result of Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT). Though recovery was difficult and took a long time, he is now able to do many things that were previously considered unattainable. His mission is to reach every stroke survivor and show them that recovery is possible! Through his Spokes Adaptive Cycling clinics, he helps stroke survivors gain independence, ability, hope, and freedom. The goal is to increase awareness about stroke and HHT (Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia), the cause of his stroke, and to make adaptive cycling available to the stroke community. While he and his organization focus on overcoming the hurdles of suffering a stroke, his empowering message and the products he highlights can help a wide range of people, such as those with traumatic brain injuries, Parkinson’s Disease, Multiple Sclerosis, balance issues, limb loss or paralysis, or those on the Autism spectrum. 

All proceeds from the ride and registration will go to support their mission of doing cross country tours with a fleet of demo trikes and adaptive equipment allowing people to demo the equipment, answer questions and help them regain their freedom.
