Join hundreds of spinning enthusiasts including David Duchovny, Peter Krause, and reunited cast members from Baywatch at the Santa Monica Pier to raise funds for the Harold Robinson Foundation. One hundred stationary bikes will be on the pier, each “traveling” 100 miles. “Buy” a bike for the day and can either share with a team or ride individually. Expect it to take six hours to ride the 100 miles. Jeff Robinson will lead the cause with a fundraising goal of $500,000 to send over 2000 kids to camp this summer. Robinson, a Beverly Hills native, has been raising funds to send underprivileged children to camp since he graduated college. Twenty years later, he is now a full time “physical philanthropist.”
