5 Days. 445 Miles. One Goal.
We're celebrating our 7th year of raising funds to find a vaccine for HIV/AIDS and we'd like you to join us. From August 12-16, 2008, we will be riding from tranquil Burlington, VT to beautiful Portland, ME, on our quest to deliver one clear message: the time is now for an HIV/AIDS vaccine.

Our riders have raised over $625,000 over the last six years for UCLA AIDS Institute and Emory Vaccine Center, enabling each institution to conduct cutting-edge research that no grant would previously allow. They have touched countless lives along the route, spreading the message that the time is now for an HIV/AIDS vaccine to all who they encounter. We have given every dollar raised by our riders to the beneficiaries, by being frugal with costs and getting corporate sponsorship and donations of goods.

We've built a great community of love and compassion, and we want to invite you to join us for our 2008 Bike Trek. The event is from August 12 - 16, with onsite registration taking place on August 11th. Registration fee is $160.00 USD.

Feel free to join our message board and see how great our community is. Experience the Trek through our eyes. Read our journals, look at our pictures and see how the Trek has changed our riders - for the better.
