We have a local chapter here. I see them on the news some and at WalMart taking donations. There are some BIG BOYS doing this. Very safe place for a kid to stand behind. Good stuff...

yea, we have chapters, in most states now.

If you've got the time, and ability, get involved with your local chapter. I'm sure they'd be glad to have you.

We don't get paid in money for our time, but trust me its more than worth it... seeing a child go from scared and timid, to bold and empowered. It's enough to put a lump in a grown man's throat.

We don't make the children strong, we make them feel safe enough to realize how strong they already are.

It was a pretty disorganized ride as they expected about 800 bikes and got over 2000 doing the same 2 starting points one destination.

I don't see a BACA chapter here in Ontario? It sounds like a great cause.
