We’re back!

We’re SO jazzed to ride with you again!

If this past season has taught us anything, it’s that we all need fun and fellowship to be healthy. We were created to be in relationship, and we get energized when we’re around friends and family. So join us on October 23, and help celebrate the biggest and sweetest MTB “family reunion” in Southern California.

New Name, Same Great Ride!

We started out as a 50 Mile Ride – but now we have 10 and 25 routes. We originally provided cargo bikes to coffee growers in Rwanda – but now we’re providing bikes to other African countries like South Africa and Eritrea.

We helped develop Team Rwanda Cycling – but now we’re supporting continental teams in Ethiopia, Eritrea, Nigeria, and Algeria.

So we’re not just 50 Miles. And we’re not just Rwanda. But we ARE about dirt. GOOD dirt. And we are about DOING good. As we look to the future, we want to expand beyond Orange County CA. We want to add other rides in other locations. We want to add some gravel bike events too. All under the umbrella of a new name: the Good Dirt Ride.

One thing won’t change. Whether you call us the 50 Mile Ride, or the Rwanda Ride, or the Good Dirt Ride – we just want you to join us again. We promise to bring you the same fun, the same epic trails, the same huge raffle, and the same legendary post-ride party. Join us – and let’s do Good Dirt together!
