It has been used to provide everything from day-to-day necessities, such as groceries, to fulfilling end-of-life wishes. The cost to participate is $20, plus $10 for any additional passengers. This will include lunch once the riders return. Register now or in person at the event. T-shirts will be available soon for pre-purchase starting at $25.
