It's that time of year again! Ride for the Feast is a 2-day, 140-mile Maryland bike ride from Ocean City to Baltimore City, May 11-12, 2019. This is always a special ride because my ride partner (and wife) will be joining me after a bad crash kept her out of it a few years ago.
SO why do I ride? The event raises money for Moveable Feast, the only Maryland nonprofit that delivers healthy meals to people living with HIV/AIDS, cancer and other life-threatening illnesses. Our services are provided in Baltimore City, the 5 surrounding counties and on the Eastern Shore, all at no cost to our clients. Last year, Moveable Feast delivered 743,940 life-saving meals to 6,060 Marylanders. This ride is also symbolic - the fundraising minimum of $1,500 equals the amount it costs to feed one client for a year. 140 miles represents the furthest distance Moveable Feast travels to deliver to a client.
