Become a Virtual Rider
The Virtual Ride & Advocacy Challenge is a fun, challenging way to support Autism and disAbilities anywhere and anytime. It is designed to engage groups and communities that want to create their own interactive fundraising experience and for those who, for whatever reason, cannot join on of our planned charity rides in-person.
The challenge involves cycling, fundraising, and trackable virtual actions (i.e. – watching Advocacy videos) that are designed to engage and educate our virtual riders.
Challenge participants will:
- Have 1-month (30-days) from the date of their registration to complete the challenge.
- Receive points for funds raised, miles tracked, and actions take on the fundraising portal.
- Earn prizes and incentive points that can be redeemed at the end of the event. The more you do; the more you earn.
Those who complete the challenge will earn a unique prize. To “Complete the challenge”, Challenge participants must (1) ride their goal distance (tracked by Strava or entered manually), (2) complete the advocacy tasks in their portal (I.e. – watch non-profit profile videos, etc.), and (3) reach the $250.00 fundraising goal.
