Local businesses
behind the ride
Teked runs on local support. These five businesses have stood behind us, and we would like you to know them too. Every name below links straight to their own site.
Onbikes
A Tampa 501(c)(3) nonprofit raising funds to provide bikes for at-risk children, including homeless and foster teens.
Their mission is to restore the self-confidence, health and overall well-being of under-served kids across the Tampa Bay community. This year they are celebrating fifteen years of turning wheels into wonder.
The donate button opens Onbikes’ own fundraising page on PledgeIt.
