Team Sussex Cyclists Rides in Israel
Club Members Renata Price, Eddie Gross, and David Levy participated as Team Sussex Cyclists in the five-day Israel Ride riding from Jerusalem to Eilat for a combined 874 miles and 39,794 feet of climb to raise money for two important organizations promoting environmental protection in Israel, throughout the Middle East and the United States. With the generosity of friends and family, their pedaling supporting crucial work towards a more sustainable, equitable, and peaceful world for all has raised money to support The Arava Institute for Environmental Studies located in southern Israel and Hazon, the largest faith-based environmental organization in the U.S. |
|
They have already raised $15,876 - the 11th highest among 25 teams - with all 192 riders, virtual riders and fundraising participants having raised a total of $971,991towards the 2022 Israel Ride goal of $1,000,000. It is still possible to make a donation to help Team Sussex Cyclists to be among the top ten teams.

DelDot has approved Sussex Cyclists to participate in their Adopt-A-Highway Program. We will maintain a section of Cedar Creek Road north of Milton. (Note: Cedar Creek Road is used frequently for our club rides, and is part of the route for many organized rides in Lower Delaware. It is also part of the Delaware Bicycle Route 1.) If you have any questions about the program or suggestions on how to keep participation high for future Adopted Highway Cleanups, please contact Mike Savage. mikesavage54@hotmail.com |
Sussex Cyclists Volunteer at Safety Booth
Volunteers from Sussex Cyclists distributed bicycle safety literature and answered a wide range of questions about all things bicycle including how to become member of Sussex Cyclists at the first annual Tour de Friends Family Biking Event held on Sunday, October 2, 2022.
Although the family friendly scavenger hunt bike ride for children and adults had to be cancelled due to rain and high winds, all the information booths were relocated indoors to the Officers Club in Cape Henlopen State Park. A large number of bicycle accessories donated by Seagreen Bicycle and Lewes Cycle Sports were given away along with raffling off a number of bicycle baskets filled with with over $100 of bicycle items that included front and rear lights, mirrors, reflectors, multi-tools, spare tubes and riding gloves. Crooked Hammock Brewery provided complimentary food and beverages that included “Tour de Friends” - a French pilsner specially brewed for the event. This inaugural event - to be held annually - benefits the Friends of Cape Henlopen State Park (FOCHSP), a non-profit 501(c)(3) volunteer organization that works with the Delaware Division of Parks and Recreation and the staff to support and advocate for one of the county's most unique public parks.
Volunteers from Sussex Cyclists were recruited by Denny Shook, member of FOCHSP and weekly volunteer at its Bicycle Barn that loans out bicycles to visitors of the Park. Tania Miles, Denny Shook, Robert Weintraub (standing) and Bill Gorodetzer, Heidi Lerch and Kathy Imhoff (seated) assisted at the Sussex Cyclists Safety Booth during the inaugural Tour de Friends in Cape Henlopen State Park.
