Charity Support Rides - 2012 (2 trips to choose from)

Adding a new Trip! Arctic Regions of Norway

Please Join the Ride

The TWO WHEEL VIEW Charity Support Ride is a rare international travel experience. Join Rick McFerrin, founder or TWO WHEEL VIEW, for the ride of a lifetime to benefit young people for summer bike trip programs.

Take a  2-week mountain bike expedition in a remote region of Argentina or the Arctic Regions of Norway.

• See the world differently.
• Challenge yourself in extreme adventure.
• Prepare for an uncommon experience and uncommon  adventure.
• Change the way you think about yourself and the world.

The money you raise will benefit the TWO WHEEL VIEW bike trip fund for students that would not otherwise have the opportunity to participate. Each year TWO WHEEL VIEW sends deserving students on bike trip programs to Norway and Argentina. When you enroll in any TWV Charity Support Ride, you are actually supporting the mission of TWO WHEEL VIEW and making a significant difference in the lives of youth. Our programs strengthen developmental assets that keep young people in school, help them transition into adulthood, and become productive members of the community.

Uncommon Adventure

Rick and Tanya McFerrin founded TWO WHEEL VIEW after a 2-year bicycle expedition around the world. You will visit amazing and out of the ordinary places they discovered and engage with communities beyond the roads-less-traveled.

TWO WHEEL VIEW trips are designed for exceptional experiences in uncommon destinations.

A TWO WHEEL VIEW trip is a grass-roots approach to international travel  - trips are not pampered, not catered and unlike anything you may have ever done. It will be one of the most remarkable things you will do in your life.

TWO WHEEL VIEW will provide the bikes, guides, camping gear and the ride of your life. Pack your personal things and we will take care of the rest.

Fundraising?

To join the trip, you pledge to raise a minimum of $1,500 to benefit TWO WHEEL VIEW - a registered Canadian charity and registered USA 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. Many people raise much more - some more than $5,000. Two Wheel View is operated exclusively for charitable and educational purposes. Donations are 100% tax deductible.

TWO WHEEL VIEW will provide you with fundraising ideas and support.
