Get up n ride foundation

Founded in 2015 by Blake Owens and Nick Reed, Get Up N Ride NOLA has revolutionized the cycling culture in New Orleans. What began as a modest Tuesday night social ride rapidly transformed into the city's largest weekly cycling event, attracting both locals and tourists. Known for vibrant rides featuring illuminated bikes and lively music, the company offers a unique way to experience the city's rich culture and neighborhoods.

Beyond tours, Get Up N Ride NOLA is deeply rooted in community engagement. Collaborations with organizations like the New Orleans Recreation Development Commission (NORD) and events such as the annual Santa Ride, where they distribute gifts and meals to the homeless, exemplify their commitment to giving back. As they celebrate a decade of service, their mission remains: to foster community through cycling and showcase the spirit of New Orleans.
