We want you to COMMIT to RIDE the LAST GASP with Team Cape Cod Beer
What is the LAST GASP?
The LAST GASP is the quintessential Cape Cod Funraiser! Put on by the Cape Cod Charitable FunRaiser the LAST GASP is a bike ride from Sandwich to Provincetown where the riders collect funds for their favorite Cape Cod Charities, including:
- Cape and Islands United Way
- Cape Cod Young Professionals
- Champ Homes
- Hope Hospice, Cape Cod
- Kiwanis Clubs of Hyannis and Sandwich
- Lyme Awareness of Cape Cod
- Silent Spring Institute
- Spaulding Rehabilitation of Cape Cod
You can ride for your favorite.. or split your fundraising amongst all 8
When is it?
The LAST GASP takes place on Sunday September 14th – all day. We have team rides on Wednesdays throughout the summer..and try to get together when we can – we know everyone is busy – so team rides are not a requirement.. but help get you motivated and in shape.
Just as a note – riding at all is NOT a requirement. There are plenty of “GASPERS” that are “virtual riders”. Seriously if you don’t want to ride – but are willing to raise the money we are happy to have you!
How much do I have to raise?
To ride on the 2014 TEAM CAPE COD BEER you must PLEDGE TO and then RAISE a MINIMUM Of $1,250 or more. This is new for 2014. After years of having MASSIVE teams ( 60 riders) where no one knew each others names we have decided in 2014 to have a TEAM of BIG WHEELS. Big wheels are super special and having a team of big wheels would be super cool. Raising $1,250 is not difficult if you are willing to do a bit of work.
Team Cape Cod Beer has raised the following over the last three years:
- 2013: $53,071
- 2012: $55,295
- 2011: $45,141
What if I can not raise $1,250 or more
If the BIG WHEEL challenge is too much for you – we ask that you not sign up to ride with our team.. you are welcome to ride the LAST GASP – in fact we encourage you to find a team to join or make your own!
