Key West Bike Ride (5-Day)
February 27 - March 5, 2026

Tour Highlights

Ends Cycling is inviting Cyclists & Support Staff to our 15th Annual Key West Bike Ride! Come experience sunny South Florida with us. It’s a sight to behold! God’s beauty is on display as we traverse 300 miles together across the Everglades, down Route 1 South, through the beautiful Florida Keys. The bike route is almost all flat, with the exception of 47 bridges, one of which is 7 miles long! Experience special treats like Key Lime Pie and fun activities like feeding the tarpon at Robbie’s Marina. We couldn’t possibly invite you on this tour without mentioning the amazing hospitality of our host churches! On this tour, you’ll have the opportunity to make new friends, cycle through God’s beautiful creation, and change the world for the youth of Bulgaria.

The total participants between the 5-day and 3-day KWBR tours are limited to 40 cyclists and 15 Support Staff. There is the possibility of a waitlist if the tour fills up. As always, your registration will not be complete until payment has been received.

Thursday morning (March 5th), we’ll give you a ride back to Homestead or Ft. Myers at 7 am.

Official 10-Week Tour Training Plan.

For the Youth of
Bulgaria

Our beneficiary, Josiah Venture Bulgaria’s mission is to partner with churches who have the vision to reach these youth, but lack resources and training.  Through your prayers and funds raised, they hope to train and equip many more local churches across Bulgaria to “welcome home” teenagers across the nation. Help us meet the needs of these youth and #PrayPedalRepeat for the youth of Bulgaria!

Where the money goes

Not to Ends Cycling

The majority (90%) of all donations goes directly toward impacting youth served by our beneficiary in this county, in Jesus’ name. The remaining funds (10%) support the administrative costs for our parent organization, New International, a not-for-profit which, in all honesty, helps us do what we do even better. Tax deductible receipts and year end giving statements are provided to all tour participants and donors.  Find our more about our financial transparency and accountability standards on our About page.
