The Power Of Bikes

Tuesday 22nd Jul

My name is Alex Clark, a proud educator, 2023 DC Teacher of the Year, and 2024 SHAPE America National PE Teacher of the Year. As the founder of Prime Ability, a youth cycling and career readiness program in Washington, DC, I’ve witnessed firsthand how bikes can change lives. Our mission is simple but urgent: more kids on bikes, less kids on the streets.

This year, I’m running the Chicago Marathon to raise awareness of teen gun violence—a reality that has taken far too many of my students. Through Prime Ability, I’ve seen the transformative power of cycling. Bikes give my students not just a safe outlet but also confidence, purpose, and a path toward success—on and off the streets.

Every mile I run is for them: for the kids who’ve found freedom, community, and hope through cycling, and for those we’ve lost too soon. I’m asking for a small donation to help me reach my goal and continue creating opportunities for youth to pedal towards brighter futures.

Thank you to my supporters
