The 16th Annual Riverside Ride & KIDZFest is our awareness and fundraising campaign for Kiwanis Club of Victoria (KVOC) which serves the children of the world (based in Victoria, Texas) for over 77 years. Since 2009, KCOV has hosted the Texas cyclist community as a Recommended Ride. Following the ride, participants can grab lunch and a drink (beer available for riders over 21) included for all participants while listening to live music and watching presentations with Ballet Folklorico, Karate Academy, Texas Zoo, YMCA workout coaches, and the Children’s Museum. Food trucks will also be available.
No matter if you’re a recreational, novice, or pro cyclist, there’s a route designed with YOU in mind!
