How it all started.

A 2-day father and son ride from Madison to La Crosse in 2014, turned into more friends, family and co-workers joining each year. By year three, the ride was used to support a local family going through unimaginable circumstances and ever since, this ride has been focused on further strengthening our local community through charitable giving. In 2021, Bike Forward, Inc. formed as a natural next step in our mission to do good things and teach our families the value of giving back to the community in any way possible.

Thank you Partners

We are incredibly thankful to Bike Forward for supporting our conservation crews! Thanks to their fundraising ride, WisCorps received $10,000 that supported our efforts to restore critical wildlife habitat and build and restore miles of recreational trails across Wisconsin! Thank you, Bike Forward!

Bike Forward and their wonderful generosity made a great impact on how much we are able to serve the members of our community. Their combination of cycling and fundraising for nonprofits, has shown us the amazing support that others have for what we do. Promoting healthy lifestyles and giving back to the community is directly in line with our mission and we can’t thank Bike Forward enough for all of their support.

Wheels for Winners provide bikes to kids who do community service. Since our beginning we have relied on refurbished bikes, but with the help of Bike Forward we were able to provide a special group of deserving kids a chance to have a new bike. It was a special moment to see their faces as they got their new bikes.

A few years back, Bike Forward came to my family's need while I was battling stage 4 cancer. They made it their mission to make sure my boys were taken care of if something would happen to me, and raised $10K for my son’s college funds (awesome, right)!
What a great showing of generosity from all involved and it is so cool to see the positive things that continue to be done by the Bike Forward Family!
