Ride For The Living 2026

**_PLEASE NOTE: You must fill out a waiver form before registering for this
ride. _**(https://jewishdetroit.org/ride-for-the-living-waiver/)

Be part of Ride for the Living 2026, an event that turns memory into motion
and brings us together in support of Jewish life. With every mile, we honor
history, affirm Jewish resilience and make a visible statement of belonging
and pride.

Federation’s Ride for the Living supports the original Ride for the Living in
Europe—a powerful journey from Auschwitz to the JCC in Krakow that bears
witness to what was lost and affirms what endures. Our Detroit-area satellite
ride carries that same spirit close to home, strengthening our connection to
Jewish life in Poland today and to one another here.

**Riders of all ages and experience levels are welcome** , with three pace
groups:
Slow Rollers: 10–12 mph; Cruisers: 13–15 mph; and Chasers: 16–19 mph.

**Non-Riders:** You can still support the Ride for the Living and join the
celebration at the finish line at Ferndale Project. Register and select
“Cheerleader” to make a donation to the Krackow JCC.

**Ride-day highlights include:**

* A 30-mile roundtrip ride from Ferndale to the Detroit River, with curated stops along the way
* Low-traffic streets, with security support at the front and back to ensure a safe, smooth experience
* A rest stop with food and drinks to keep you energized
* Full mechanical and SAG support
* A post-ride gathering at Ferndale Project—food and a drink on us
* **New this Year: A Shorter Family-Friendly Ride**

Now more than ever, showing up matters. This ride is a way to move together,
stand strong in who we are and support Jewish life here and around the world.
100% of the entry fee supports the Krakow JCC, helping Jewish life continue to
thrive.
