Bike Breakers Foundation is asking riders to help write local history and support three Beaches charities at the same time.
The nonprofit's inaugural World's Biggest Beach Bike Ride rolls out Friday, Aug. 14, along a two-mile stretch of sand from the Jacksonville Beach Seawalk Pavilion to Atlantic Boulevard.
Net proceeds from the ride will benefit three local causes: BEAM, which provides emergency financial assistance to Beaches residents in crisis; V for Victory, which helps families through cancer treatment; and Two Titmice Foundation, which assists breast cancer patients.
Riders can check in starting at 4 p.m., with festivities at Seawalk Pavilion kicking off at 5 p.m. and the ride itself starting at 6:30 p.m. Registration includes a "Bike Bucks" booklet with discounts at local restaurants and bars, plus entry into a raffle for a Sun Cruiser Beach Cruiser and a Mango Superbird e-bike.
More information and registration are available at jaxbikebreakers.com.
