Ride 2 End Suicide

Join us for the 2021 Ride 2 End Suicide! We have two options for this year’s event.

To encourage early registration, the prices are the lowest right now!  Prices will increase $5 on March 1st , and will increase another $5 on June 1st.  So why not sign up today??

VIRTUAL OPTION:

We have a VIRTUAL registration option, so that you can ride along with us, and support the 2021 Ride from home, in your neighborhood, or on your favorite stretch of trail! This year, many people are experiencing mental distress, and your support is needed more than ever.  When you choose the VIRTUAL Ride, you will still receive the event shirt, and you can also create your own Virtual Team to Ride!

IN PERSON OPTION:

If you choose the in person option, you will enjoy a ride on the beautiful Macomb Orchard Trail, and support suicide prevention awareness and crisis intervention in our community.

The Ride will start and end at Capital Banquet Center, located on 31 Mile Road in Washington, MI. The Ride route is 15 miles out and back on the trail from Washington to Richmond (30 miles total distance).

Riders can turn around at any point, based on their fitness level.  Riders also have the option to ride the route multiple times, if you have a specific distance goal in mind!

All proceeds from this event will support these organizations:
