​Our Mission

Rise and Ride Newburgh builds momentum for getting more residents to bicycle safely in Newburgh.
Sense of ​Adventure
​The adventure and buzz you get from coasting down hills and being outdoors means you are more likely to continue to cycle regularly, compared to other physical activities that keep you indoors or require special times or places.
Discover History
​Newburgh is rich with history and landmarks, many  of which are accessible by bicycle. Residents can experience their city in an entirely new way.
​Alternative Transport
​As a mode of transport, cycling replaces sedentary (sitting) time spent driving motor vehicles or using trams, trains or buses with healthy exercise, and is much faster than walking.

Part of Rise & Ride is the Bike Match Newburgh. Each month, we receive old and new bikes and with the help of volunteers, fix the bikes and match them to residents in Newburgh. To donate a bike or receive a bike, please sign up at https://bit.ly/BikeMatchNB

Donate a Bicycle

If you are donating a bicycle, we are looking for bicycles that may need only basic upgrades. No junkers. If you decide to donate a bike, you may be eligible for a tax deduction.
