JGB Podcast Riding RAGBRAI for the Dream Team!

Hi there, it’s Murph and AP!

You know us as the voice of the JustGoBike Podcast. As always, we are excited to be back to ride RAGBRAI across the great state of Iowa again for this year’s 400+ mile ride.

 

This year, we have decided to start this GoFundMe as a way of fundraising for The Dream Team. This Iowa organization is special to me because it provides young adults with opportunities to build confidence, set goals, and create a healthy lifestyle through mentor-based interactions centered around bicycling. In March, a team of 50-60 teenagers start their 5 month journey to RAGBRAI. The riders work with caring volunteers to set goals, work hard, and DREAM BIG! The bicycle is used as a tool to inspire and motivate young people, encourage lifelong wellness, and build confidence through accomplishment. Completing a 400+ mile bike ride across the state gives the participant a tangible sense of achievement, as well as a framework for setting and achieving life goals. The Dream Team makes the seemingly impossible, possible.

 

And these young Dream Teamers are the future for many RAGBRAI's to come!
