Buzzards Bay Watershed Ride
TEAM SCBA is Ready to Ride
Team South Coast Bikeway Alliance (SCBA) is riding in the October 5 Buzzards Bay Watershed Ride. Sixteen cyclists in Team South Coast Bikeway are ready to ride. They surpassed their goal and have raised over $43,000 for clean water to date.
The funds raised for the Coalition will be matched by SCBA sponsors, benefiting two causes. The SCBA has been permitted to “piggyback” on the Watershed Ride fundraising. Whatever the team raises for Buzzards Bay will be matched by (still-to-be-determined) donors to the SCBA. Our 2025 supporters are featured below. We appreciate their support. Donate or join our team here—sponsorships and donations are accepted through October 31. Email thesouthcoastbikeway@gmail.com for sponsorship information.
If you don’t ride, please consider donating to the SCBA team or the South Coast Bikeway. Funds raised 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 the Cape Cod Canal.
SCBA is a 501 (c) (3) organization whose mission is to assist our member communities in completing their portion of the South Coast Bikeway. In 2024, we raised over $43,000 for clean water and $2800 for the South Coast Bikeway, for over $90,893 for the Buzzards Bay Coalition over the last 9 years. Let’s make this our best year yet by supporting our two causes.

Regional partnering for better bike riding is essential to us. The Coalition’s Watershed Ride activates many of our supporters in a fitness and fundraising challenge that features our region’s exceptional bike riding landscape. Over the years, our riders have raised $46,000 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, $30,000 from Community Preservation Act funds combined from Westport, Dartmouth, and New Bedford, and $40,000 from the Commonwealth’s MassTrails grant program.
