Motorcycle enthusiasts are encouraged to participate in the Bikers for Behavioral Health ride, set for Saturday, Oct 19.

The 185-mile benefit motorcycle ride, organized by Maine Behavioral Healthcare (soon to be rebranded as MaineHealth Behavioral Health), aims to raise awareness and funds for behavioral health services across Maine and New Hampshire.

Riders will depart from Farmington’s MaineHealth Franklin Hospital at 10:30 a.m., embarking on a journey through the mountain regions of both states, with planned pit stops at MaineHealth Stephens Hospital in Norway, and MaineHealth Memorial Hospital in North Conway, New Hampshire, before concluding with a destination celebration at Spring Harbor Hospital in Westbrook.

Maine Behavioral Healthcare plays a vital role in serving residents throughout the MaineHealth footprint, offering support to individuals and families facing mental health challenges. Proceeds from the event will directly benefit these services, ensuring that community members in need receive the care they deserve.

Registration begins at 9:30 a.m. with a $50 fee per bike/rider and an additional $50 per passenger. The day will wrap up with a celebration set for 3:30-5:30 p.m. at Spring Harbor in Westbrook, featuring live music, food and raffle prizes.
