ASBURY PARK, NJ – Trinity Church will be holding its third annual Jersey Shore Ride For Food Justice on Sept. 11, with a scheduled rain date of Sept. 18.

The money raised will go towards the church’s Food Justice programs, including its Saturday Soup kitchen, Food Pantry, and Women’s Hospitality Network.

With the safety of riders in mind, organizers are offering riders two options for this year’s race. The first option is a 15, 30, or 62-mile socially distanced bike ride along the beautiful Jersey Shore that starts and ends at Trinity Church in Asbury Park.
