If you are like us, cycling played a crucial role in your development as a child: enabling independence, developing regular exercise habits and exploring your neighborhood and beyond. We feel every child should have that opportunity.
For more than 10 years, Ostroy has partnered with IChallengemyself.org, buying hundreds of bicycles and supporting the dedicated staff and their unique programs.
iChallengeMyself is a school-based cycling program that gets kids on bikes. The program introduces young people to endurance sports, nutrition, and dedication to a training program.
Since their launch in February 2005, they have directly served over 2,500 public middle school and high school students ages 11–19 in the Bronx and Manhattan. I Challenge Myself is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.
To learn more about the program, please visit iChallengeMyself.org.

Raising money every year, introducing us to key people in the cycling community, and advising us on the development of our youth cycling program. Ostroy's contributions over the years have been crucial to our success.

RideUpGrades.org seeks to bridge both the transportation and health divide in low-income communities through cycling. We break down the barrier to entry for teenagers and families to start commuting by bike and participating in the sport of road cycling. Through free group rides, road cycling instruction, and a road racing youth scholarship we aim to turn the sedentary into cyclists, and commuters into competitors.
