So many of us don’t feel like ourselves these days, and the pandemic is making it harder to get the help we need.
Ride Don’t Hide, Anywhere is a way to take care of your mental health and take care of your community.
This June, join thousands of riders—and walkers, runners, yogis, spinners, dancers, families, rope-jumpers, HIIT trainers and more—in communities across Canada as we bring mental health into the open.
We come together to ride outside, ride inside or ride in spirit to raise funds for mental health.
Ride to feel like yourself again. Raise funds to get one more person the help they need.
WHY RIDE?
Ride Don’t Hide is a chance to…
Move more
Set your own goal, move your body in your own way, and improve your physical and mental health!
Give Back
Loneliness is as bad for your health as smoking. Ride Don’t Hide brings together teams, families, friends, workplaces and communities to rally around the most important cause of our lifetimes.
Feel Better
As a participant, you’ll get tips, tools, tricks and activities to help you take care of your own mental health, while taking care of others.
HOW IT WORKS
What does “my ride, my way” mean?
Ride Don’t Hide 2021 is a “choose-your-own-adventure.”
You decide how—and how much—to get involved. Ride Outside, Ride Inside or Ride in Spirit.
Ride Outside for a 100 km throughout June or simply go out for a “leisurely” Sunday ride.
Ride Inside with a rigorous 30-day spin challenge or casually pedal your stationary bike while bingeing on Netflix.
Or Ride in Spirit. Because it doesn’t have to be a literal ride. Cross fit in your basement, do yoga in the living room, take a brisk walk before you start work or take 10 minutes in your day for mindfulness. However you take care of yourself this spring – that’s your Ride.
And sharing it with others – that’s your ‘Don’t Hide.’
