Our annual Hospice Charity Bike Ride is in its 12th year. 100 % of proceeds go directly to the St. Luke’s Hospice program to benefit patients and families at end of life. Participants can choose to ride 20 or 30 miles of the D & L Trail. The ride begins and ends south of Jim Thorpe at the Lehighton Trailhead – one of the most dynamic sections of the trail. St. Luke’s Hospice provides fire, police, and EMS support along the ride. Snacks and beverages are available at two rest stops located at the Slatington Trailhead and at Treichler’s bridge. Lunch is provided at the end of the ride.
Rain Date is June 4th.
Our audience is from novice to expert cyclist and from young to old. We have had a span from 8 years to 70 years old ride at our event. It is family and pet friendly. Our ride attracts all levels of riders with many types of bikes and from all over the area including family and friends who travels from other states to ride in memory of a loved one.
