Event: Wheels for Meals

Route Distances: 88 miles total

About the Ride: Twenty-two eager riders made our 2011 event the greatest success. The riders came from Midland, Odesssa, San Antonio, Houston, Fort Davis and Alpine. The day was perfect with a cool morning and sunny afternoon. The riders were greeted at each pit stop along the way and shared lunch in Valentine. In the evening, there was a cookout for all the volunteers, riders, and  sponsors. Everyone remarked at how much fun the ride was and promised to come back next year. October 6 is the date for 2012. Please join us then.

Wheels for Meals is a charity bicycle ride from the Food Pantry of Jeff Davis County to Valentine, TX.  The ride is about 88 miles.  Riders from around the state have signed up to challenge themselves for this ride. Each rider has collected donations of at least $250. which go directly to the Food Pantry. Our Food Pantry helps about 20 percent of the families in Jeff Davis County with supplemental food.  2009 was our first year for this wonderful fund raiser.

Besides the bicycle riders, many volunteers are needed for registration in the morning, manning the two pit stops, passing out lunch in Valentine and cheering the riders in as they return to the Food Pantry in the afternoon.

Location: Food Pantry-Jeff Davis County – 609 E Compromise St, Fort Davis, TX
