A Weekend in support of The Phoenix featuring Christian Vandevelde and Andrew Talansky

Powered by REIS Cycling | April 11-12, 2026 (Miami, FL)

This inaugural fundraising weekend brings together The Phoenix and REIS Cycling for a shared journey rooted in movement, community, and recovery. The Phoenix builds sober, active communities by replacing isolation with connection, while REIS cultivates a cycling culture focused on belonging, purpose, and camaraderie. Across the weekend, riders will come together to experience cycling the way it was meant to be—open, inclusive, and deeply human—while supporting The Phoenix’s recovery-focused initiatives.
