#WhyWeRide
Hosted by Families Behind the Badge Children's Foundation, the Ben to the Shore Bike Tour on Sunday, July 20, 2025 is a charity bike ride that raises money to provide necessary financial relief to the families of fallen or critically injured first responders; to cultivate positive interactions and relationships between first responders and the communities they serve; and to provide mental and emotional wellbeing resources to first responders and their families.
About the Ride
Participating riders have the option of cycling the full 65-mile route from the base of the Ben Franklin Bridge in Philadelphia, PA to Atlantic City, NJ. We also offer a 30-mile route from Hammonton, NJ to Atlantic City, NJ, as well as a 10-mile route from Galloway, NJ to Atlantic City, NJ.
Riders are greeted by friends, family, volunteers, and supporters at the Showboat Hotel to celebrate their amazing accomplishment and raise additional funds at the legendary After Party!
Please take some time to explore our event site for important information, including tips for riding, training, and fundraising.
