our mission
Ride Extreme for Youth Extreme is a fundraiser to build youth ministry/sports complexes throughout Nicaragua. We are committed to providing a safe and secure place for Nicaraguan youth to gather in order to experience personal growth in a positive environment. Each complex will cost $70,000 to build.
Each rider raised funds to purchase a dual sport motorcycle that was donated for ministry use when we arrived in Nicaragua!
who are we?
Please see the "Riders" tab and "Our Stories" tab at top of page for more info.
The RideExtreme ride crews grew organically by the calling of God. Brian Weed, our missionary friend in Nicaragua, contacted Bruce Walker (Texas) and Bruce Judkins (Wisconsin) during early summer of 2016. He floated the idea of a motorcycle ride from the US to Managua, Nicaragua as a way to get motorcycles donated to mission staff. It wasn't long before this expanded into raising funds for Jovenes Extremo (Youth Extreme) to build at least 4 youth sports complexes.
As "the two Bruce's" started reaching out for support it quickly became apparent that God, as usual, had bigger plans. Those plans included calling other riders to join us. Every member of RideExtreme has a unique story to tell of "how God spoke to them" to join us.
We all have this in common; a love for God, a desire to help the less fortunate, a passion for motorcycle riding, and finally, an uncontrollable zeal for the "Extreme"! We believe that following God's will in our lives will always stretch us beyond the norm. We thank each of you for joining us vicariously through your generous giving! God bless you all!

Psalm 45:4-5/ New Living Translation (NLT)
4 In your majesty, ride out to victory,
defending truth, humility, and justice.
Go forth to perform awe-inspiring deeds!
5 Your arrows are sharp, piercing your enemies’ hearts.
The nations fall beneath your feet.

One of our riders, Mike Kurtz, invested endless hours taking and editing video while on the trip.
Upon his return he edited all of this video into approximately three 20 minute segments.
Please take some time to join us in our journey. We hope this inspires you to not only want to contribute but also to step out of your own comfort zone to let God God guide you to do something far bigger than you can imagine on your own! God bless you!
