MotoDemption Announces 501 (c) (3) Non-Profit Foundation Status

The 10th annual Kurt Caselli Ride Day at Fox Raceway in Pala California will be the final 2022 event for the team at MotoDemption


MotoDemption sets sights on the future with the announcement of  our 501 (c) (3) Non-Profit Foundation Status. Creating a nonprofit enables us to think beyond profits and revenue, and maintain an athlete vision dedicated to the overall purpose of this organization's goals. It's a platform that allows us to focus on the big picture and set long-term goals and objectives that will help us to continue changing lives for years to come.

With support and guidance from Roy Tuscany and his amazing team at the High Fives Foundation over the past couple of years we have already made a massive impact within the two wheeled Moto community. The High Fives Foundation is a nonprofit organization on a mission to provide hope and resources for athletes from all walks of life. They support people and help them get back to their outdoor physical activity of choice from snowboarding and skiing to surfing and mountain biking and beyond..

We are to be aligned with The High Fives foundation and look forward to the opportunity to continue to combine resources and put forth efforts to help each foundation achieve the ultimate goal of changing lives in need.

The 10th annual Kurt Caselli Ride Day at Fox Raceway in Pala California will be the final 2022 event for the team at MotoDemption and we are excited at the opportunity to engage with both the Kurt Caselli Foundation, The High Five Foundation, and the incredibly supportive community that has helped to build upon this event over there last decade.

MotoDemption will be in attendance to help support the adaptive bike segment by providing adaptive bikes, onsite education, and a team of coaches to work closely with adaptive riders both on and off the track. We will be offering demos for the adaptive riders in attendance and there to simply help and support in any capacity.

Mission Statement: MotoDemption makes motocross a reality for those with physical disabilities by providing the bikes, adaptations, instructors, and resources necessary for safe and fun riding.

MotoDemption began after co-founder, Aaron Hill, suffered a life changing injury while riding in 2008. Through his journey and recovery, Aaron made it his mission to get redemption and ride again at the track that he had crashed on.  Aaron, with help from good friend and additional co-founder of the foundation, Davey Gonzales, got to work modifying a new bike to allow him to ride again a year later.

In 2010, Aaron got that redemption and hasn’t stopped.  Through Aaron and Davey’s journey, MotoDemption is now able to help others get back on a bike and have a little piece of that redemption as well.
