May Ride is an annual charity ride in San Marcos, California. This ride begins at 10:00 a.m at the Biggs Harley Davidson and ends with a fun after-party featuring live entertainment, contests, and other activities. All funds from the event go to the Armed Services YMCA, which enhances the lives of military members and their families. 

May Ride has grown significantly since the first event took place in 2003. Today, over 500 riders typically participate in the group ride, while more than 5,000 attendees visit the after-party. 2022 marks the 20th-annual May Ride, and event organizers are working to make this event the best yet. 

Rides4Alz

July 9

KSU

Charity rides present the perfect opportunity to enjoy a fun group ride and raise money for a worthy cause. If you’re looking for a popular charity ride in San Diego this year, we recommend checking out Rides4Alz. 

Rides4Alz is an Alzheimer’s charity ride taking place on July 9. 100% of the funds raised from this event will stay in San Diego County to support Alzheimer’s research. Additionally, a portion of the funds will help people living with dementia and their caregivers.  

You can either register as a solo rider or join a team, then ask family members and friends to sponsor your ride. All of their monetary sponsorships will go toward Alzheimer’s assistance as well.

If you plan to attend this year’s Rides4Alz, be sure to register as soon as possible to begin raising funds.
