The Merkley Supply Brickpeddlers

The story of Merkley Supply’s support for the Ottawa Hospital’s Ride for Research (The Ride) goes back to the very beginning… before the beginning in fact! In 2009, philanthropists and Ottawa businessmen Robert Merkley and Roger Greenberg participated in the Toronto to Niagara Falls Ride to Conquer Cancer, a long-distance bicycle ride. They were inspired to apply the concept, their joy of cycling and their enthusiasm to raise much-needed funds for cancer research right here in Ottawa.

The following year, The Ride was created along with its largest, most successful and most enthusiastic team — the Merkley Supply Brick Peddlers. In the first year alone, the potential of The Ride was revealed when it raised nearly a million dollars in one day. With 32 members, the Brick Peddlers team was the largest and most successful in raising funds. And that was just the beginning. By 2014, the Brick Peddlers would peak at an astonishing 132 members in strength.

Since 2010, The Ride has raised $11,400,000 for cancer research, with the Brick Peddlers, headed by the unstoppable enthusiasm of Robert Merkley, contributing $1,450,000 of that funding. Typically, The Ride featured anywhere from 500- 950 cyclists, many of whom were not everyday riders.

The Ride may have run its course, but Merkley Supply’s philanthropy efforts continue. Merkley Supply is a supporter of many local initiatives including medical research, education and community outreach.
