2019 BORP Revolution Ride & Festival

By Betsy Dorsett on May 3, 2019 No Comments

Registration opens soon!

The Revolution Ride and Festival is a one-of-a-kind event that redefines—even revolutionizes—the way people think about cycling and disability. It’s the largest fundraiser for Bay Area Outreach & Recreation Program (BORP), a nonprofit organization that offers life-changing sports and recreation programs for people with physical disabilities.

This year’s Revolution will be at the Hyatt Regency Sonoma Wine Country in Santa Rosa, CA on Saturday, September 21.

Rowing at BORP

By Betsy Dorsett on November 16, 2017 No Comments

Come try rowing at BORP.  Rowing is an activity for every background and ability, and this fun and challenging sport is for beginners and advanced rowers alike. Learning to row can be done on and off the water. Indoor rowing machines (ergometers) measure the amount of work performed and can be used to develop stroke technique by developing rowers.  At this session, we will have 6 ergometers and 2 two-person-boats available for people to try out this exciting sport!

Out thanks to Disabled Sports USA for their support of this program.
