Focused Investment In The Sports and Communities We Serve
At ERIK’S, our community support is intentional and structured. Each year, we allocate charitable giving to initiatives that directly strengthen the sports and communities we serve. Our efforts focus on four core pillars: Advocacy, Trail Stewardship, Youth Programming, and Community Development.
By concentrating support in these areas, we ensure meaningful and lasting impact across the regions we serve.
Our Giving Model
ERIK’S charitable partnerships are planned and allocated annually. At this time, we are not accepting unsolicited donation or sponsorship requests.
To ensure we make the greatest impact, ERIK’S prioritizes support within our four pillars. We are committed to investing where we can create a lasting impact on the sports and communities we serve.
We appreciate the organizations, volunteers, and leaders who make riding better for everyone.
Together, we build stronger cycling communities.
SOUTH DAKOTA COMMUNITY SUPPORT
In Sioux Falls, riders benefit from a well-connected system of paved paths and a growing local cycling community supported by ERIK’S. The Sioux Falls Bike Trail loop serves as the backbone of riding in the area, offering scenic, accessible miles for commuting, recreation, and fitness throughout the city.
Mountain biking in the region continues to expand with trail systems like Tuthill Park, Leaders Park, Good Earth State Park Trails and Great Bear Ski Valley, providing a mix of beginner-friendly and intermediate terrain. Local advocacy and trail development are driven by organizations such as Falls Area Singletrack and Falls Area Bicyclists, helping grow access to both road and off-road riding in the region.
Community events like the ERIK’S Mega Demo Tour bring riders together to connect and experience new equipment. ERIK’S is proud to support the Sioux Falls cycling community—helping riders of all levels get more out of every mile.
PEOPLE FOR BIKES
People for Bikes makes cycling better for everyone by uniting riders, businesses, and communities to make every bike ride safer, more accessible, and more fun. The coalition has more than 325 supplier members and 1.4 million supporters in its grassroots network.
People for Bikes focuses on three pillars: infrastructure, with its nationwide Great Bike Infrastructure Project; policy, with government interventions in the areas of transportation, mobility, and recreation; and participation, especially with its One Ride at a Time climate solution efforts.
