Quiet Corner, CT

"The Daughters of Anarchy” philanthropy group is excited to host the second PMC Kids Ride. This PMC Kids Ride is a fun way for kids to help other kids by using their athleticism. We will have several ride options, depending on children’s ages. We hope your family will join us and raise money for the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and the Jimmy Fund.

• 9 - 9:50 am – Registration
• 9:50 - 10 am – Opening Ceremonies
• 10 - 11 am – RIDE!!
• 11 am - 1 pm – After party with games, music, raffles and more!
  
  

• Mini-Ride: Designed for riders on tricycles, balance bikes or big wheels (suggested ages 5 & under). It is a small, flat, closed course loop inside the main .9 mile loop. There is plenty of space for parents to cheer for the children. This is not a race; it is a ride that welcomes children to ride the loop as many times as they would like.
• Junior-Ride: Designed for riders without training wheels (suggested ages 6 - 8). It is a flat, closed course loop. This entire main loop is .9 miles. Ride is twice around for a total of 1.8 miles.
• Youth Plus-Ride: Designed for advanced riders without training wheels (suggested ages 9-10). It is a flat, closed course loop. This entire main loop is .9 miles. Ride is 7 times round for a total of 6.3 miles.
• Virtual Rider: Virtual riders are those who would prefer to ride on their own and not in person at the event. Virtual riders who raise $50 or more will receive an official PMC Kids Rides t-shirt and water bottle at the end of June for spring rides. Virtual riders have no registration fee or fundraising commitment.

Parents will need to create an account or log in with an existing account to register their child or family. When creating an account, please enter the parent's information first, as there will be a separate section in registration to enter the child's information.

Under "Event Option" parents will be able to select a route for each child. Riders have a $20 registration fee and a $40 fundraising minimum. Parents will need to sign a waiver and agree to the fundraising commitment in order to complete registration. In-person riders will receive their rider kit at the ride.

Virtual Rider

Parents will be able to select the “Virtual Rider” route if their child will not be riding in person but still wants to support the PMC Kids Rides program. Virtual riders can ride in their own neighborhood on the day of the ride or whenever they'd like! If a virtual rider raises $50 or more, they will receive an official PMC Kids Rides t-shirt and water bottle at the end of June for spring rides. 

Once registration is complete for both in-person and virtual riders, parents will receive a confirmation email with information on how to log into their management page to customize donation pages and to track donations. 

100 percent of all rider-raised dollars go directly to Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.

Donate online or by check. Checks can be made payable to the Pan-Mass Challenge or PMC. Please send all checks to:

The PMC Kids Rides program follows all public health regulations and guidelines for your area.

General Safety Tips!

1. Wear a properly-fitted helmet (children are required to wear helmets when participating).
2. Ride in control – this is not a race.
3. Hands should remain on handlebars.
4. Never wear any kind of headphones. You need to hear clearly.
5. Follow the ride guides and volunteers.
6. When passing other rides, make sure to yell “on your left!” Never pass riders on the right.
7. If you need to slow down or stop to cross an intersection or obstacle, yell “slowing” or “stopping” to alert those behind you.

Each PMC Kids Ride has a licensed medical professional on site.

Get the entire family involved and support the event by volunteering! Be a ride marshal, work at a water stop, help distribute snacks and more. Volunteers will need to create an account and then will be able to select the position(s) that they would like.
