Help Team Alterra raise funds for diabetes research, information and advocacy efforts! We are proud to once again sponsor this annual ride in Grafton, WI and hope that you’ll consider joining us.
Why Ride?
The funds we raise will support the American Diabetes Association’s mission: to prevent and cure diabetes and to improve the lives of all people affected by diabetes. If you choose to ride with us, you’ll get to take part in a fun, exciting, healthy event for the whole family. Every rider counts, and everyone is welcome to join Team Alterra!

This ride through Ozaukee County is part of a series of fund-raising cycling events held in 40 states nationwide to benefit the ADA. The Tour is a ride, not a race, with routes designed for everyone from the occasional rider to the experienced cyclist. Whether participants ride 10 miles or 100K, they will travel a route supported from start to finish with rest stops, food to fuel the journey and fans to cheer them on. Alterra’s very own Mountain Bike Race Team will lead the way for the 100K cyclists - come cheer them on or join in the ride. You can also support our team by making a donation or asking your family and friends to ride with you!
