Earn your kit
The Ride for a reason team has been working in conjunction with Santini to design the latest Ride for a reason kit!
We think it is the best yet—but we’ll let you be the judge! Raise funds (or donate to yourself) and earn your kit today!
Raise
$100
Earn a pair of UV sleeves
As soon as you kick off your fundraising and raise your first $100 (that’s probably one email to a few mates) you’ll get a pair of UV cycling sleeves. These lightweight sleeves offer UPF 50+
protection in summer, won’t heat you up
and are so much easier
than applying sunscreen.
Raise
$500
Earn a jersey
Once you raise $500 you will earn an exclusive Ride for a reason Santini cycling jersey. Wear it with pride and show your support for Ride for a reason on the road! Don’t forget to tag us
on social media and send photos of you
in your kit into us.
Raise
$1000
Earn the full Ride for a reason kit for FREE!
When you raise $1,000 as part of your Distance Challenge, you'll earn the final piece of your exclusive Ride for a reason Santini cycling-knicks to complete the look!
