Greetings Friends and Family!
Thanks for visiting my Hungry Lion Bike Tour fundraising page. On September 27, 2025 I will be riding with Nicole in Southern VT. The Hungry Lion is organized by the local Rotary club, and benefits the Southern VT food bank.
If you've received this it's because I know you share our values, and are likely to help! We've ridden this tour many times, but haven't always been organized enough to do much in the fundraising department....
This seems to be a good time for all of us to step up for the folks in our community who are struggling, since public funding for so many programs is quickly drying up.
So that's it! Please help out if you can.
Peace and Love- Rich and Nicole

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 2025 Event will be held in person with a Virtual Option for those not able to attend in person. We also have an option for folks who would like to walk/hike!
