Who Is HI-Minnesota?
The Minnesota Ironman Bicycle Ride is organized, managed and developed by a committee of volunteers, most of whom have been doing it for a dozen years or more, on behalf of Minnesota Council of Hostelling International (HI-MN). The proceeds from the bike ride go to benefit HI-MN, a 501 (c)(3) not-for-profit organization. We have managed the ride since its inception in 1967, working hard to make it the best bike ride in Minnesota.
You tax deductible contributions help pay for our staff, our educational programming, and our hostel operations of the Mississippi Headwaters Hostel in Itasca State Park. For more information, please visit our web site.
