Payton and Dillon Budd Memorial Ride

Ride for Hope. Ride for Each Other.

Join us on Sunday, June 7th, 2026, for the Payton & Dillon Budd Memorial Ride.

This isn't just a community event; it is a heartbeat of hope in the Okanagan. Proudly brought to you by the Thomas Alan Budd Foundation, this ride is a deeply personal tribute held in honour of Payton and Dillon Budd. We ride to remember them, but we also ride to ensure that no young person in our community ever feels they have to face their darkest moments alone.
