TUCSON, AZ (Tucson News Now)- Organizers with Greater Arizona Bicycling Association say about 300 people rode up to Mt. Lemmon on Friday for the annual Mt. Lemmon Hill Climb.

The 56 mile round trip route includes four checkpoints where volunteers pass out food and water.

Each rider goes at their own pace, so some may get back before noon, and others later.

Organizers add the money raised will go toward providing free bicycle helmets for kids, and bicycle education.
