Join Us on the Boardwalk

We're proud to support the 4th Annual Mullaney Team Bike-A-Thon—a community-driven event taking place on June 14, 2025, at 8:00 AM, along the scenic Long Beach Boardwalk at Grand Boulevard. This year, we're riding together for more than just miles—we're riding to uplift our neighbors and nourish hope at the Long Beach Soup Kitchen.

Biking for a Greater Cause

We believe in the power of connection, especially when it benefits the community we proudly serve. This Bike-A-Thon is more than an athletic event. It's a moment for networking, giving back, and building stronger local bonds.

As part of Coldwell Banker American Homes - Long Beach, we're honored to lead the way—alongside our fellow offices across the region—in making a meaningful impact right here at home.

Why We Ride

Every mile tells a story. Each push of the pedal raises awareness and delivers direct support to those facing food insecurity in our community. Proceeds from this event will benefit the Long Beach Soup Kitchen, an organization dedicated to feeding those in need with dignity, compassion, and consistency.

When we come together for something bigger than ourselves, we become part of the solution. And at Coldwell Banker American Homes, we take pride in leading that movement.

Local Support, Real Impact

We're not just in Long Beach—we're of Long Beach. Our team knows this boardwalk, these faces, and the heartbeat of our neighborhood. We live where we work, and events like the Bike-A-Thon allow us to give back in powerful, visible ways.

Together, we're united by purpose. That unity is what fuels our success as real estate professionals—and as community advocates.

What to Expect

The Bike-A-Thon welcomes all levels—from casual riders to cycling enthusiasts. It's not about speed—it's about spirit. Participants will enjoy a morning filled with positive energy, scenic views, and feel-good motivation, all while doing something that truly matters.

Whether you're joining solo, with friends, or as a family, there's space for everyone at this meaningful ride.

✔️ Community Connections
✔️ Local Networking Opportunities
✔️ On-Site Refreshments & Music
✔️ Direct Support for the Long Beach Soup Kitchen
