The Jericho Road Ride is a recreational, fall season bicycle ride suitable for both kids and adults that weaves through specially chosen and marked routes on scenic roads connecting Concord and Lowell. Refreshment stands and rider support will be offered along the routes, followed by festivities and food in Lowell's Boardinghouse Park.

It is also Jericho Road's only fundraiser throughout the year. Even if you can't ride, we're happy to accept donations for Jericho Road's work through our online giving portal or by check, made out to: The Jericho Road Project, 20 Lexington Road, Concord, MA 01742. All donations are tax-deductible.
