Benefit Ride for Haiti Relief: 100% of all entry fees goes to Mercy Corps: 80 miles for $80!
Held on Eastern San Diego County's Old Hwy 80 and one stretch of Hwy 94: Minimal traffic, no traffic lights and just a few stop signs. A beautiful, quiet route!

Three checkpoints plus roving support.

Excellent training ride for Mount Laguna Bicycle Classic, our mountainous cycling event in this same region on April 17.

"L'Union Fait la Force" means "Strength Through Unity." That's the National Motto of Haiti. Now it's time for cyclists to unite!

In response to the horrific situation in Haiti, AdventureCORPS will organize a cycling event called "80 For Haiti" on February 13, 2010 (NOT Feb 6, as originally announced). It will be an 80-mile ride, on Old Hwy 80 in southeastern San Diego County, with an $80 entry fee. 100% of the entry fees will go directly to Mercy Corps, one of the most respected relief organizations worldwide. The "80 for Haiti" start / finish will be in Pine Valley, CA. The route is spectacular, on absolutely quiet roads through rolling terrain. AdventureCORPS will absorb all costs, but food, drink, and support sponsors are being sought.
