2026 Moonlight Classic

Created by Amy Payne-Johnson Contact

Join the team behind the ride!

The Moonlight Classic is an evening bike ride through downtown Des Moines that raises critical funds for children’s mental health services.

On Saturday, July 11, we will host the 15th Annual Moonlight Classic! This community event begins and ends just outside Captain Roy's. We are looking for volunteers to help with event set-up, clean-up, and serving as route marshals to help ensure a safe and enjoyable ride for all participants.

Whether you’re helping behind the scenes or cheering riders on along the route, your support helps make this event possible!
