Thanks for visiting my Hungry Lion Bike Tour (HLBT) fundraising page. On September 30, 2023, I will be riding my bike in my seventh Hungry Lion Bike Tour in the Green Mountains of Vermont and Berkshires of Massachusetts. This is my favorite ride all year. Not only is it spectacular scenery, killer hills and an epic after party, I ride to help the Deerfield Valley Lions to serve their community in a significant way.
The primary purpose of this event is to fight hunger in southern Vermont (and enjoy a great event). Every December the Lions team up with the local Rotary Club to provide grocery assistance for hundreds of people in the Deerfield Valley of Southern Vermont. In recent years HLBT has also generated enough funds to write generous checks to the local food bank as well.
Your contribution can make a difference! Thanks so much for your support. I appreciate it and so do a large number of folks in Vermont!

Each year, our local LIONS CLUB works hard to raise funds for our neighbors in need by sponsoring The Hungry Lion Bike Tour , one of Southern Vermont’s premier cycling events, typically attracting hundreds of riders, friends and family members to our region. We are able to run this professional-caliber event thanks to dedicated volunteers AND the enthusiastic contributions from participants and their sponsors! Our 2022 Event will be held in person with a Virtual Option for those not able to attend in person. We've also added an option for folks who would like to walk/hike!
