Over the years, Levi’s GranFondo has grown into many things: a ride, a race, a celebration of Sonoma County, and a gathering of people who believe that bikes can change lives.
Today, we’re proud to share a milestone that belongs to all of you: To-date, we’ve surpassed giving more than 1,000 brand-new bikes to kids across Sonoma, Napa, Lake, and Marin counties. That number is enormous, and it matters—but what matters more is what it represents: our commitment to something bigger than what we are individually, an ongoing promise to empower kids--especially those at risk--through the simple, transformative power of two wheels.
It also represents the broader impact of this community we've built. Through Levi’s GranFondo and your generosity, we’ve supported at-risk youth organizations like Forget Me Not Farm, helping serve more than 5,000 young people through direct financial contributions over the years to the tune of well north of $3.5 million and counting.
This is what a powerful regional partnership looks like between Levi’s GranFondo, King Ridge Foundation, Bike Monkey, Trail House Santa Rosa, Specialized Bicycles, and you. We all have different roles, but we have one shared belief: that the next generation deserves opportunity, joy, and a way forward.
We’ve seen the impact firsthand. When a kid wraps their hands around brand-new handlebars for the first time, something changes. You can see it in their eyes. For the youngest kids, the bike is almost bigger than they are—heavy with possibility. For older teens, sometimes in their last year of high school, there’s an immediate understanding that this isn’t just a bike. It’s independence. It’s an outlet. It’s a coping mechanism. It’s a way to find a better, happier place when things feel heavy.
We want to offer special gratitude to Specialized Bicycles for standing with us year after year to put real bikes under real kids, and to Trail House Santa Rosa, whose team has built hundreds upon hundreds of these bikes with tireless generosity and care. Their work is quiet, physical, and essential—and it makes this entire program possible.
Most of all, thank you... To everyone who rides Levi’s GranFondo; To those who donated; To those who started fundraising campaigns and asked others to give.
This impact exists because you showed up and went the extra mile, and we’re not done.
Looking ahead, the potential of this program is far-reaching. Every additional bike means another kid discovering confidence, freedom, and joy. Another life nudged in a better direction by something as simple—and as powerful—as two wheels.
As we close out the year, we invite you to consider starting a fundraising campaign or making a contribution to help us exceed our goals. It’s a chance to play a meaningful role in improving the life of someone you may never meet—but who will feel the impact every time they ride.
Come be there for the magic of our 17th year doing big things together.
Levi's GranFondo returns April 25th, 2026.
