“My first time participating in Day of the Tread. My first time in the Land of Enchantment. It could not have been more memorable, the people, the event, the fun, the energy, the breathtaking backdrops of the New Mexico landscape, the very worthy and honorable cause. I’ll definitely give it a 10, a 12 if at all possible!”
—Charlie Wilson, Rockledge, Florida
Fun for all ages and abilities!

Kicking off a new series - Day of the Tread tips, to make your ride safe, fun, and fast on the big day. Tip #1 - it's all about nutrition. Make sure to load up on a good meal the night before the ride, and take plenty of snacks and water on your Day of the Tread journey. If you need a refresh, remember to stop at one of the Recharge Zones for entertainment and snacks.

So much fun playing Marimba at the El Pinto stop. Always love the costumes and volunteers playing with us. Lots of goodies and... HOT SOPAPILLAS.
Pedaling to the heart of the race—this Tin Man’s got the metal to go the distance! 🚴♂️💨
