New For 2025 - ENY Fundraising Partners
Our pricing model changed last year. Instead of marketing with an annoying price increase each month, and repetitive boring emails, our focus has shifted to charging what we believe the value of the ride is in comparison to other similar rides.
When you register for the ride, there is a fixed amount that we need to cover the expenses of the ride. Then there is an amount that we need to help fund strategic investments for the club (for example, we are currently working on a new web site). But there is plenty of room for us to share a portion of the registration fees with fundraising partners.
There is a trend in the cycling world for non profits to run bike rides to raise funds. Not everyone can do this successfully - for those, we are happy to share our ride.
We have moved to a new registration system called BikeReg and they have an offering called PledgeReg which allows riders at their option to fundraise for a cause they hold dear. If you don’t see a cause you would like to support, you can click on OTHER and provide it to us - you can use PledgeReg to set up your own web site
Partners will be added to this page along with their discount codes should you decide to fundraise for them. Consider inviting your network to support that causes you have passion for by sponsoring your ride! The standard model is we will discount the ride $20 and make an initial donation of $20 to start our fundraising efforts off.
PLEASE NOTE: This is NOT the NYCC Roll-It-Forward Program - scroll down to learn more about that program which issues Awards to organizations that more diredtly support our mission.
Roll It Forward
Historically, New York Cycle Club has supported Kids Ride Club and I Challenge Myself, two NYC charities that help local at-risk youth. Over the past few years, we have initiated a new program called Roll It Forward, where 10 cycling-related causes can apply for grants of $500 and up. If you know any organization that merits our support, please have them nominate themselves. Details are available on the New York Cycle Club web site here.

“It was great. Missing that one turn was a bummer, but aside from that all of the rest stops were fun, the volunteers were great, and the food options were fantastic this year.”
“First time, enjoyed the group I rode with, the after party food. Support staff was helpful and friendly at rest stops. Many thanks!”
