Hop on your bike this fall and and enjoy a beautiful Minnesota day with great people, all for a great cause!
Join Give Us Wings for our annual family-friendly bike ride. Proceeds from this event will support our economic development programs for families living in poverty in Uganda.
We’ll start at Carver Park Reserve in the western suburbs. You’ll be able to choose the length of the ride that is right for you (roughly 10, 20, or 30 miles). E-bikes are welcome! Our reserved picnic area will serve as a central meeting point for refreshments and camaraderie…and once again we’ll be awarding our annual trophy to the most successful fundraising team!
There is no cost to participate in this event but we do hope every rider will make a donation to Give Us Wings in an amount that works for them. There will also be an opportunity to set up a fundraising page to send to family and friends! After you register, we’ll send you all the information you need to get started.

Situated on the western edge of the Twin Cities, Carver Park Reserve is home to Lowry Nature Center, Grimm Farm Historic Site and King Waterbird Sanctuary.
You may spot trumpeter swans, osprey, mink, white-tailed deer, barred owls and a variety of waterfowl and songbirds.
A well-maintained, paved trail creates a loop on both the eastern and western sections of the park, with a connecting link in the central part of the park. The trail travels through the park's big woods and along the many marshes.
Thank you to our Ride Sponsors!
