PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 9, 2026
September 13 Bike Meets and 10% of Comoto sales will support the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation, building on the company’s annual Million Mile Challenge
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The Comoto Family of Brands – RevZilla, Cycle Gear, J&P Cycles and REVER – will once again rally the motorcycle community to support the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation (PBTF) through its annual Ride for Kids Bike Meet & Charity Drive on Sunday, September 13.
As part of Comoto Cares, 10% of all in-store and online sales on September 13 will be donated to PBTF, with a total contribution of up to $100,000. In addition, Comoto stores nationwide will host Ride for Kids Bike Meets from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., bringing riders together for an afternoon of community, motorcycles and fundraising in support of children and families affected by pediatric brain tumors.
The September giving day builds on Comoto’s broader 2026 Ride for Kids efforts, including REVER’s annual Million Mile Challenge. Launched July 1, the challenge encourages riders to track their miles through the REVER app, turning miles on the road into support for PBTF with a goal of reaching 1 million miles to unlock an additional $30,000 donation sponsored by Alpinestars, Biltwell, Cardo, and Pirelli. The initiative runs through September 13, creating a season-long opportunity for the motorcycle community to make every ride count.
“Through Comoto Cares, we once again have the opportunity to turn the passion our community has for riding into meaningful support for families facing childhood brain tumors,” explained Zach Parham, President & CEO of Comoto Family of Brands. “From the Million Mile Challenge to our September Ride for Kids Bike Meet & Charity Drive, we’re proud to bring riders together throughout the season and give them multiple ways to make an impact.”
The Ride for Kids Bike Meets around the country will give riders an opportunity to connect with fellow motorcyclists while supporting a cause that has deep roots in the powersports community. Events will take place at participating Cycle Gear stores, as well as select J&P Cycles locations and RevZilla showrooms.
Comoto has supported the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation through Ride for Kids since 2021, while REVER’s partnership with the organization dates back to 2019. The continued collaboration reflects the longstanding relationship between the motorcycle community and PBTF, with Ride for Kids recognized as the country’s longest-running national motorcycle charity program.
“Ride for Kids has always been powered by the generosity and passion of the motorcycle community,” added Alissa Karas, Director of Peer-to-Peer Fundraising at the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation. “The continued support from Comoto and its family of brands helps us advance research while providing critical resources to children and families navigating a brain tumor diagnosis. We’re grateful to every rider who chooses to participate, donate or simply spread the word.”
PBTF supports families impacted by pediatric brain tumors through programs addressing medical, emotional and financial needs, while also investing in research and advocacy aimed at improving treatment options and outcomes for children.
Riders can participate in the September 13 Ride for Kids Bike Meets at participating Comoto locations. Customers who are unable to attend in person can still support PBTF through purchases made online on September 13, when 10% of eligible sales will be donated, up to $100,000.

About the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation
Since 1991, the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation’s (PBTF) research funding, advocacy efforts, and family support have led the way in ending the childhood cancer community’s biggest crisis. Dedicated wholly to addressing this rare, but devastating disease and guided by the experiences of patients, survivors, their parents, and siblings, the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation is the only organization to meet families’ needs along every step of their pediatric cancer journey.
The largest patient advocacy funder of pediatric brain tumor research, the foundation also funds and advocates for innovative projects that lead to vital discoveries, new clinical trials, and better treatments – all bringing us closer to a cure. We’re able to do that because of people and partners committed to supporting families and ending childhood brain cancer.
PBTF Ride for Kids, the country’s longest-running national motorcycle charity program, began in 1984 when two motorcyclists from Atlanta, Mike and Dianne Traynor, mobilized their riding community to support a local child diagnosed with a brain tumor. What began as a single grassroots ride —Ride for Kids, quickly ignited a nationwide movement of purpose-driven riders and supporters united in the fight against pediatric brain tumors.
