THE RIDE
OF YOUR LIFE
THE RIDE THAT STARTED IT ALL
Now, it might be confusing that we call ourselves “The Ride of Your Life” and that we also have a film by the same name that documents our first ride in 2019. Straight up, we had no idea this was going to become a “thing” at the time. So, sorry. Anyways, in 2019 we rode 2500km in 11 days and raised $8,500 towards the construction of a new bike park in Yellowknife.
