Icon Legend

“It was a fun and beneficial experience to everyone that was there!"Josh Skiba, GHX

Make the most of your investment by choosing a team building event that reaches out to people in need of a helping hand. You will be gaining a greater understanding of important social and environmental issues, a deeper appreciation of your co-workers and company values and an increased level of self-worth knowing that you have made a difference in someone else’s life.

Now imagine building that bike with your very own hands and racing it against your friends and colleagues in events like the Slugfest, the Tricycle Relay Rally and the Downhill Derby. Not only will your heart be beating fast in the spirit of competition, it will be overflowing when you fully realize the effect your efforts have on an underprivileged kid.
