Motorcyclists looking to support a great cause are invited to join Ride for the River, benefiting Raritan Headwaters Association (RHA), a nonprofit conservation organization. The rides takes bikers on a scenic tour of rural backroads in New Jersey’s Upper Raritan River watershed across Hunterdon, Somerset, and Morris counties. The country roads featured on the ride include many that parallel or cross iconic rivers and streams.

The 2026 Ride for the River is a solo run that can be completed between April 22nd, Earth Day, and July 21st. The goal over these 90 days is to raise $8,000 to support RHA’s work to protect the health of the region’s open spaces, rivers, streams, and critical drinking water resources. It’s a fun, leisurely ride that showcases the beauty of the watershed and the natural resources we work to protect.
