In 2006, 2007, and 2008, Ventura Velo donated funds to Habitat for Humanity and the Arthritis Foundation.
Funds from our future fund raising events, the Mardi Gras Century and Three Harbors Tour, will be use to support Ventura Velo's efforts to advocate for bicycling interests and also to donate to other charitable organizations selected by our board of directors.

TWO CYCLING TOURS
are held each year to raise funds needed for our charitable activities. Ventura Velo was founded in 2005 and since then we have held 8 century bicycle tours and 1 transcontinental tour as well as smaller recreational bike rides.

Early registration has already started for the 2009 Three Harbors Tour, which rides on July 11, 2009, and planning is under way for a relaxed coastal tour from Vancouver to San Francisco in September 2009.

2008's Team Venturavelo


Ventura Velo supports a team of riders in the California Coast Classic Tour (CCCT). Team Ventura Velo raised over $26,000 for The Arthritis Foundation (AF) and had fun riding in last year's CCCT, which is sponsored by Amgen. Our team has raised over $ 29,000 in 2007 for AF and rode in the CCCT7 from San Francisco to Santa Monica. Team Venturavelo is going to ride in this year's CCCT and is hard at work fundraising again. Check out the team's Donation Webpage for an update on this year's fundraising efforts for the Arthritis foundation.
