On November 10th, cyclists gathered for the Cycle for Veterans Ride, an event dedicated to honoring those who have served our country. This annual ride brings together the cycling community to show appreciation for veterans while enjoying a day of camaraderie, fresh air, and a shared passion for two wheels. The ride was about 18 miles with 1,400 feet of elevation.

Aventon’s Generous Donation

One of the highlights of this year’s event was the exciting Aventon Pace 500 V2 bike raffle. Thanks to Aventon’s generous donation, one lucky rider went home with a brand-new electric bike! The Aventon Pace 500 V2 is a powerful and comfortable e-bike, perfect for commuting, leisure rides, or hitting the open road with ease.

The Bicycle Warehouse Temecula team enhanced Pace 500 V2 with some awesome aftermarket accessories, ensuring it was ready for any adventure. Our team installed:

  • Fenders to keep the rider dry and clean in all conditions
  • A rear rack and basket for added storage and versatility

To provide peace of mind and long-term reliability, we also included:

  • A Free 90-Day New Bike Service to keep the bike running smoothly
  • A Flat Prevention Package<, adding extra protection against punctures

A Day to Remember

The Cycle for Veterans Ride was more than just a ride—it was a celebration of those who have served. Riders of all ages and skill levels came together, sharing stories, supporting an important cause, and making memories along the way. Seeing the community rally behind our veterans was truly inspiring.

Looking Ahead

Events like these remind us of the power of cycling to bring people together and make a difference. We’re honored to have played a role in supporting our veterans and look forward to continuing our efforts in future events.

Thank you to Aventon, the event organizers, and everyone who participated in making this ride a success. Until next year, keep riding and keep supporting those who have served!
