A record-setting $215,00 was raised for Roadracing World Action Fund for soft-barrier purchases at the 2024 “Rainey’s Ride To The Races” at Laguna Seca.. First of all, I want to thank everybody who took part in this year’s “Rainey’s Ride to the Races.” We had a record number of riders and raised a record amount of $215,000 in donations for the Roadracing World Action Fund. The highlight for me every year is inviting the Legends who come and give back to this generation of racers with their time and commitment to improve rider safety. I know all the Legends had a good time both on and off the bikes.
