I've decided to take on a new challenge and ride 25 miles in support of Pete's Good Vibes!
I'm riding because Pete's Good Vibes is an incredible organization that helps families battling cancer by providing financial support when they need it most. Cancer affects so much more than a person's health, it impacts entire families emotionally, physically, and financially.
The 25-mile ride will definitely push me out of my comfort zone, but it's nothing compared to the challenges these families face every day. If I can pedal a few extra miles to help make someone's burden a little lighter, it's well worth it.
Whether you donate $10 or $100, you're helping provide relief, hope, and a reminder that no one fights alone.
Thank you for cheering me on, supporting this amazing cause, and helping me spread some Good Vibes one mile at a time!
PGV 2026 Bike Tour
Pete's Good Vibes is holding it's 5th annual Barns and Beers Bike Tour September 12, 2026. And we have to say… we're pretty proud. Five years of all kinds of weather, riders, and challenges. With your help we have raised over $100,000, and helped countless families battling cancer. We are so grateful to have you along for the ride, literally and figuratively. Grab your bike for a fun ride through the rolling hills and scenic country roads of Coopersburg and surrounding areas. Choose from a rolling 23 mile or a more challenging 55 mile ride. Start and finish at a historic barn where you'll meet new friends, enjoy a meal from a local food truck, and local craft beer. Rest stops and sag wagons are included with every route. E-bikes are also welcome. Pete Caldes, the foundation's namesake, absolutely loved bringing people together and enjoying the good times...so come ride with friends, new and old, hang out afterwards and play corn hole, pool, darts, foosball, air hockey and ping pong. Enjoy a craft beer and take a run through the 40' inflatable obstacle course. We will again have prizes from local businesses and a free gift for all riders! We strive to make this bike tour not just about the ride, but also about the destination. So finish the ride, hop off your bike and feel the Good Vibes! All this is included with your entry fee.

Pete's Good Vibes supports families in the midst of their cancer fight when they are overwhelmed physically and mentally, battling this horrible disease. When the battle, coupled with lost wages, creates seemingly insurmountable debt. We step in and donate directly to the families. Your generosity makes this possible and we thank you!
Pete’s Good Vibes is a grassroots organization established in memory of Pete Caldes to raise funds and offer support to families fighting cancer. There are no paid employees, all participants are volunteers and, after operating costs, all donations go to benefit the designated recipients of Pete’s Good Vibes. Our mission is to grow our foundation and establish connections at cancer centers in the Philadelphia and Lehigh Valley area and beyond. so that we can provide much needed assistance at a time when families need it most. Established in 2019, in our first year we were able to immediately provide thousands of dollars in financial support to cancer patients and their families.
