Dear Friends,
We’re excited to share some big news and invite you to be part of a powerful mission.
Fahri Diner of Skipstone has joined forces with us to bring King Ridge Foundation and the Tadej Pogačar Foundation into a meaningful new effort to support children in need. This collaboration comes to life at TORTOUR 2025, one of the most challenging ultra-cycling events in the world.
Right now, Levi Leipheimer and Fahri are racing across Switzerland in the legendary TORTOUR Ultracycling event—500 kilometers nonstop through the Alps. As part of Team Skipstone, alongside Team Zeven, Tortour Racing Team, and Team Sunrise, they’re pushing themselves to the limit for a cause that’s bigger than the finish line.
This isn’t just another charity ride. Every climb, every sleepless mile, and every moment of perseverance is about giving kids a fighting chance—especially those facing adversity.
Our goal: Raise $100,000 by July 31st to benefit two incredible organizations:
King Ridge Foundation: One you’re already very familiar with—the charitable heart of Levi’s GranFondo, supporting at-risk youth since 2009.
Tadej Pogačar Foundation: Providing assistance to children battling illness and communities in crisis.
We invite you to support this mission. Your donation—no matter the size—will make a real difference for at-risk youth.
On behalf of Levi’s GranFondo, Skipstone, Bike Monkey, King Ridge Foundation, and the Tadej Pogačar Foundation, thank you for standing with us and helping to create brighter futures for children in need.
