Read MoreA Message from Our Founder
I have been working with and educating youth for over thirty years in informal settings, teen centers and weekend retreats. It wasn't until fourteen years ago, when I took a few teens out on a mountain bike ride, that I saw how adventure activities force one to unplug and recharge. The shift from unhealthy behaviors was shockingly quick. Soon, parents started contacting me and expressed how mountain biking was positively changing their child.
The number of aspiring riders grew, but some couldn't afford bikes. I began to fundraise. Within a year, Geerz was created and became my full-time passion. Thirteen years later we have over 600 weekly riders
in nearly twenty locations, with the help of amazing donors who give not only their financial support,
but professional support and time.
There are kids and now, soldiers, out there waiting for the opportunity to join Geerz. They have the drive; they just need the equipment and funding. Please join us, by riding in or sponsoring this amazing ride, and help Geerz reach the thousands of deserving individuals for whom Geerz will be a game-changer.

Testimonials
The Geerz program had an amazingly transformative effect on my daughter and son and therefore on our entire family. Its impact literally cannot be overstated. To express my appreciation, I signed up for The Get Into Geerz Ride in order to raise money to fund their many programs for underprivileged kids. The experience was spectacular. Aside from the magnificent trails, flawless logistics and endless surprises, it is an incredible privilege to spend so much quality time with such an extraordinary group of riders. The sense of camaraderie, adventure and the shared objective of giving back to an organization which makes such a difference in the lives of so many kids is truly unique. Join me. I promise you won't be sorry.
