Team South Coast Bikeway Alliance (SCBA) is participating in the Buzzards Bay Watershed Ride on Sunday, October 4 2026. SCBA seeks a matching donation from your company to our nonprofit for every dollar Team SCBA raises for the Buzzards Bay Coalition Watershed Ride.
Regional partnering for better bike riding is essential to us. The Coalition’s Watershed Ride engages many of our supporters in a fitness and fundraising challenge that showcases our region’s exceptional bike-riding landscape. Over the years, our riders have raised $135,665 for the Coalition. In our family-friendly bicycling event, Pedal for the Path, we’ve raised over $22,000 riding the Bikeway route from Westport through New Bedford and Fairhaven to Mattapoisett and back. We’ve also received corporate grants totaling $10,000 from BayCoast Bank, $80,000 from Community Preservation Act funds combined from Westport, Dartmouth, and New Bedford, and $325,000 from the Commonwealth’s MassTrails grant program.
The funds raised from SCBA sponsorships will be used as matching funds for design, engineering, and build grants to complete the South Coast Bikeway, a planned cycling route from Rhode Island to Cape Cod Canal. Team SCBA’s goal is $20,000.
SCBA is a 501 (c) (3) organization whose mission is to assist our member communities in completing their portion of the South Coast Bikeway. Last year, our team raised over $44,770, bringing the total to over $135,665 for the Buzzards Bay Coalition over the last 10 years. Let’s make this our best year yet by supporting our two causes.
