9th Annual Reason To Ride

 


THE CHARITY:

Go to varietypittsburgh.org.

Variety® empowers children with disabilities to live life to the fullest by helping kids, be kids! For more information please visit: https://www.varietypittsburgh.org

HOW IT WORKS:

Purchase a badge from Z&M Harley-Davidson® between March 9 & September 28, 2024 for $10. Proceeds benefit Variety® The Children's Charity. Travel to 14 participating restaurants to receive a unique punch on your badge. One (1) badge per person.

The restaurants will only punch 1 PER PERSON. Please don't take your friend's badge without taking your friend. Trust us, friends enjoy the ride too!

Making a purchase is not required but is strongly suggested. The restaurants donate a minimum $500 to the charity. Supporting them is very important too.

Riders who receive a minimum 1 punch on their badge are eligible to win prizes at the private riders party held at Z&M on October 6, 2024. Riders who receive 14 punches are eligible to win the grand prize, a $3000 Z&M gift card. In total, over $5,000 in prizes are given away at the riders party.
