2 days left to win a bike!!! This year, together with @norcobicycles we’re raising funds to bring access, opportunity, and education to our community in Los Angeles and beyond. We’re excited to partner with Norco again after connecting through Aspire at Crankworx Whistler and continuing to build momentum together through bikes and community. Our current raffle closes in just over 48 hours and we’d love your help through a donation, entering the raffle, or simply helping spread the word as we work toward our fundraising goal. Every ticket directly supports Grow Cycling programs and helps create more entry points for the next generation. 🎟 Link in bio to enter 🚲 Raffle winner takes home a Norco Sight C2 150 Thank you to everyone who has already shared, donated, and supported this campaign.

It starts with a bike 🚲 We’ve teamed up with @norcobicycles to give one lucky rider the chance to win a Norco Sight C2 150, while supporting something much bigger. Every ticket helps fuel our Learn to Earn program, giving youth the tools, mentorship, and confidence to fix, ride, and build their own path through cycling. 100% of proceeds go directly back into the program. If you’ve ever believed in the power of bikes to change lives, this is one small way to be part of it. 🎟 Enter through the link in bio Let’s keep growing the next generation of riders. #GrowCycling #ItStartsWithABike #RideForChange #MTBCommunity #NorcoBikes by @growcyclingfoundation
