School might be back in session early this year, but education doesn’t have to happen just in the classroom. On Sunday, Sept. 7, Cycle4Awareness, a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping special needs families, is hosting its ninth annual bike ride.

Cyclists can select from three courses: a 5-mile course, an 18-mile stretch to Ship Bottom and back, and a 36-mile course from Barnegat Light to Holgate and back.
