Cochran’s Ski Area in Richmond, Vermont9th Annual Richard's Ride Powered By VBT
The annual Richard's Ride is organized by the Richard Tom Foundation to celebrate the legacy of Richard Tom. Richard dedicated his life to sharing his passion for "all things bicycle". Proceeds will help people in Vermont Communities acquire cycling equipment, and to participate in cycling camps or races. We also sponsor and collaborate with partners to create fun cycling events in the spirit of Richard Tom. Learn more about the programs here.
When you finish your ride back at Cochran's, food and beverage will be waiting, thanks to our friends at Dakin Farms, Stone Corral Brewery and SugarSnap Catering. Untapped is again helping to provide Vermont maple based nutrition for our ride support stations!
Did you know that it takes 40 volunteers for us to put on this event? You can ride in the event and also volunteer! Alternatively, you or someone you know may want to just volunteer rather than ride. Volunteers receive a ride schwag bag, the RTF custom Osprey Daypack, plus free breakfast and lunch. Sign up to volunteer to help us run this great event.
We are looking forward to seeing you on May 18, 2024.
