Pedal for Protein (P4P) is a ride for a good cause! All proceeds help feed the hungry by providing protein rich food and support to local food banks as well as food justice programs of Northern California and beyond. 

Join the 1-day bicycle ride on Saturday, September 21, 2024 for either a 45-mile loop ride west of US-101 departing at 8:00am or a moderate 11-mile loop ride through Spring Lake Park departing at 10:00am.  Both rides start and finish at Presbyterian Church of the Roses (2500 Patio Court, Santa Rosa, CA) and travel on bike trails and less traveled roads. 

Registration fee for either ride is $100 (adult) and $50 (under 18) and includes pre-departure snacks, lunch and a T-shirt*.  A feed station will be provided midway along the 45-mile route.  All riders are required to arrive one hour before departure for check-in and time to enjoy pre-ride snacks and commaraderie.

After you register, it is easy to create your own fundraising page.  Ride overhead costs are covered by registration fees so all donations go to providing protein food for hungry people.  Your participation will help food pantries along the Northern Coast and valleys of California to provide protein rich food such as peanut butter, canned tuna, chicken, yogurt and eggs to hungry families, seniors, homeless persons and children. All funds raised will be donated to Northern California Food Banks and a selected international hunger project.  

Ride details with GPX files will be available at PedalforProtein.com by August 31, 2024.

*T-shirt order deadline is September 1, 2024, after which size availability cannot be guaranteed.
