Every day, 13 children in the United States get the news that they have one of the deadliest forms of childhood cancer.

These kids are our Stars, and you can help them by participating in a Ride for Kids event as a motorcyclist, fundraiser or volunteer. Donations benefit the Pediatric Brian Tumor Foundation’s medical research and family support programs.

Riders on all makes and models are welcome to attend. The suggested minimum donation to ride is $40 per motorcycle. We encourage you to fundraise before the event to make a real difference to the kids.

Online registration is open until noon Eastern on the Friday before the ride. Onsite registration opens at 7 a.m. and closes at 8:30 a.m.

The riders meeting is at 8:45 a.m.with the ride to follow.

The more money you raise, the more incentive choices you have. Get a collectible T-shirt for as little as $100 per person, plus a Ride for Kids hat at the $300 level. Depending on how much more you collect, you’ll qualify for prizes at different levels.

At the event, we draw for a new Honda motorcycle and other great prizes (must be present to win). All participants receive free beverages, a pancake breakfast and sack lunch enroute. You’ll also get to meet your local Stars!
