Chile Pepper Challenge Charity Ride
Join us for the Chile Pepper Challenge Charity Ride on September 28, 2025, at Grace Gardens in El Paso, Texas, for a day filled with excitement, fitness, and community camaraderie. Cyclists can select from four exhilarating routes: the challenging 62-mile Habanero Ride, the 40-mile Chile Rojo Ride, the scenic 25-mile Chile Verde Ride, or the family-friendly 5-mile Bell Pepper Ride, all supported with rest stops and SAG vehicles. This year, we're introducing a 5K walk/run to promote healthy living, encouraging families to participate while cyclists take on the road. Registration is open from May to September, offering ample time to prepare for a day dedicated to supporting the UMC's Cardiac Care Fund, which drives essential heart health initiatives in the area. Don't miss this opportunity to partake in a day of fitness, fellowship, and charitable impact—save the date and be a part of this meaningful event!
