We have big news: This year’s Bike Day raised  over $13,000—the most in our event’s history.

These funds directly support our Members and the mental health recovery programs at the Gainesville Opportunity Center.

The Highlights:

• Community Leadership: Thank you to Sheriff Chad Scott, City Commissioner Ed Book, and Dr. George Teaford for their support and powerful remarks.
• Honoring Our Own: We were proud to present roses and a plaque to former Board Member Jodi Irving for her years of dedicated service.
• Great Vibes: A huge shout-out to The Imposters for the live music and to our hosts at First Magnitude Brewing Company for providing the perfect venue.

From the sea of GOC shirts to the riders on the trail, thank you for making this our most successful year yet.

THANK YOU to the wonderful and generous organizations that sponsored our Fifth Annual Fall Festival hosted on November 7, 2025 at the GOC. We had a great turnout and great fun with more than 110 people attending, 21 community partners setting up information tables, and $7000 raised in donations.
