Registration req’d
Registration is officially OPEN for Ride for Your Life!
Join us on Sunday, October 25, 2026, at 10 AM as we come together to honor those we have lost to traffic violence and demand a safer future for everyone.
At Ride For Your Life, we don’t just ride to remember—we ride to create change. Started in 2022 to honor Sarah Debbink Langenkamp, a mother and diplomat killed while riding her bike, we link our events to legislative and policy proposals that have resulted in laws in Maryland and Colorado and bills in the U.S. Congress. Our formula turns grief into collective power.
Event Details:
When: Sunday, October 25, 2026, at 10 AM
Start Location: Boston Common
A 6-mile slow ride and a 1-mile walk, culminating in a rally at Boston Common in front of the Massachusetts State House.
Registration
• Registration for either the ride or walk is free (!) for both adults and children, though we do ask for a donation. Proceeds fund ride costs and support local advocacy groups including MassBike, Families For Safe Streets Massachusetts, and the Sidney Mae Olson Rainbow Fund.
• All those who register will be given the opportunity to raise funds via a personal fundraising page. Please champion our cause. You’ll get special recognition — and perks!
Whether you ride or walk, your participation helps fuel our advocacy for safer streets in Boston and across the country.
Because our streets exist for everyone.
