Description

Started as a 200-mile ride from West Des Moines to Arnolds Park at Lake Okoboji, Iowa more than a dozen years ago, Break the Cycle is now a series of cycling events, run relays, and other endurance events across the US, UK and Norway, which raise funds for Hope for Justice to transform lives in the fight against human trafficking.

The flagship event continues to be the Break the Cycle 200, where we ride 200 miles together in a single day with one purpose: to end human trafficking and modern-day slavery. Bike Talk with Dave rode along in one of the support vehicles (with the legendary Lang Wightman) and broke out Mr. Microphone at rest stops along the way to talk with riders (and the Mayor of the final pass-through town on the route) to ask why they're riding and just how the day was going! My co-host Dee has done it for 10 years, so she had to help open the show!
