AngelRide is celebrating it’s 5th anniversary in 2008!
AngelRide is a one or 2-day bicycle ride across beautiful country roads of Connecticut. This challenging ride offers you the unique opportunity not only to help thousands of children in 12 hospitals from New York to Massachusetts but also to challenge yourself, give back, and to know, without question, that you have made a difference in the life of a child.
