TIFTON — On Mar. 30, local bikers will be riding for a sweet cause.

A charity ride benefitting the Peanut Butter and Jesus ministry is scheduled for Mar. 30 starting at Tifton Harley Davidson, located at 49 Casseta Road.

Peanut Butter and Jesus is a ministry that works to feed local children every Saturday by handing out bagged lunches.

The ride is sponsored in part by Broken Chains, according to Cason.

“Broken Chains is not a motorcycle club,” Cason said. “We are a fellowship of Christian bikers who have found hope and healing in Jesus Christ through a ministry called Celebrate Recovery.”

Broken Chains and the Tifton Harley Davidson Riding Academy are co-sponsoring the ride, the proceeds of which will go towards Peanut Butter and Jesus.

“I’ve been going out there for months to help and I just really felt like we could help raise money through a ride,” he said. “They are a marvelous group of people. It’s a 45-member church and they’re feeding 1,300 people.”

Registration starts at 9 a.m. and the ride starts at 10 a.m.

Cason said that the ride would be a 60-mile circuit and end back at Tifton Harley Davidson.

The cost is $20 per rider and $10 per passenger.

Cason said that 100 percent of the proceeds will go towards Peanut Butter and Jesus, and that people don’t have to ride to come out and support the cause. They are also accepting donations of bread, peanut butter, apple jelly, individual kid drinks, sandwich bags and brown lunch bags, all of which the ministry can use.

Food and drinks will be available to purchase by donation after the ride, and prizes donated by local businesses will be raffled after the ride to help raise money for the ministry.

“We’re looking forward to it,” he said. “If everything goes well on the 30th, we’re looking at doing two rides a year. So we’ll see what happens, what the Lord does.”
