My dad and I are doing the mini Fundo, which is a 30 mile gravel bike ride with almost 2000 feet elevation gain. I'm riding to raise money for the JAM Fund! I would love your help. Any bit really goes a long way! All proceeds will go to the JAM Fund, which is then used to offer grants to young athletes in the biking community (mostly cyclocross) to help them fund their cycling goals! I would love to count you as a member of my sponsoship team!
The JAM Fund is proud to award grants to young cyclists who show enthusiasm, determination and desire to be their best. It's also our goal to showcase some of the amazing cycling that the Pioneer Valley offers! Every dollar raised through the Fundo goes directly to the JAM Fund. We couldn't help others without your help. We look forward to seeing everyone at the Fundo, and thanks for your generous support!
JAM Fund Grand Fundo at the Cummington Fairgrounds
This year's GRAND FUNDO is Sunday, July 12th, 2026. Thank you for your generosity and supporting the JAM Fund program!
Enjoy camping at the fairgrounds, music, food and of course, our incredible bike rides! BACK this year is our famous TIKI PLUNGE waterslide!
Dust off your tent and camping gear and join us on Saturday night at the fairgrounds. We'll have a shakeout ride and swim on Saturday afternoon as well. On Sunday, we'll have staging by the fairground bleachers at 8:45 a.m. and roll out at 9:00 a.m.
The routes are mostly gravel and double track. We suggest 40c tires and 1:1 for a climbing gear minimum. Bring a bathing suit and take a dip in the sweet rivers and lakes along the routes.
Each year, the JAM Fund provides grants to developing cyclists who demonstrate a commitment to the sport and show enthusiasm to be their best on and off the bike. If this sounds like you, we encourage you to apply so we can help support your dreams. The JAM Fund Grant comes in the form of financial support and/or equipment and may also include professional training. Cyclists between the age of 12 and 28 may apply.
In some cases, grant recipients move through the ranks of our program and work toward joining our fully-supported JAM Fund Cycling Team. Grant applicants are not required to race. They just need to love bikes or really want to try one. JAM Fund has supported more than 200 cyclists over the years. Grant recipients are formally announced during a special presentation at our July Grand Fundo, and recipients are required to attend. Recipients and their family will gain free entry to the event. We thank our donors and supporters that allow us to have such a successful development program.
