Volunteer & Receive Great Perks!
Volunteering with Dallas Bike Ride is a great way to give back to an amazing community while being a crucial part of the city’s only completely car-free social bike event. We have many fun volunteer shifts taking place at the Start Line, the Finish Festival, and out on the course, before the ride and on the ride day.
Pick any volunteer shift prior the ride starting time and get a FREE Ride Pass to enjoy Dallas Bike Ride first-hand! Plus, all volunteers receive a FREE ride crew t-shirt, snacks, drinks, and more! Our volunteer program also offers special roles for groups and provides verification of community service hours.
