Welcome to ING DIRECT Ride Now
Philadelphia 2008

9/28 Update: As all of you experienced and are aware, on September 28th ING DIRECT Ride Now Philadelphia was greatly impacted by the weather system that went through the entire area. With over 500 bikes, the Ride still occured, and riders made it safely to the Trump Marina.

Autism Speaks would like to apologize to those unable to attend and  who rode under the harsh weather conditions. All riders who pre-registered, and were not able to attend, a shirt, pin, and a bandana will be mailed to you promptly.

Again, please accept our apologizes, and we hope you'll join us next year.

If you have any questions, please contact Sam Levitt at slevitt@autismspeaks.org
