RIDE ON, CARTER ♡THE HEART BEHIND THE FOUNDATION
CARTER’S STORY.
FOREVER 13. FOREVER RIDING.
Carter Fuller began riding when he was just 2½ years old. From those first rides, dirt bikes, e-bikes, and four-wheelers became a huge part of his world. Riding brought him adventure, friendships, new challenges, and the kind of joy that stayed with him as he grew.
He had a fearless spirit, a natural talent for learning new things, a sharp sense of humor, and a generous heart. Carter was the kind of kid who would stop to help someone, even a stranger. Whether he was working on a bike, spending time with friends, or heading out for another ride, he brought his own energy to everything he did.
On June 10, 2026, Carter’s life was tragically cut short in a riding accident. He was 13 years old. His family and community carry his memory, his laughter, and his love of riding with them every day.
Gear Up for Carter was created by his family to honor his life and help keep the love of riding alive in the hearts of others. We want young riders to know the freedom, friendship, and excitement Carter found through dirt bikes, e-bikes, and four-wheelers, while helping families access appropriate protective equipment for the way they ride.
This mission matters deeply to our family and to our community in Butte County. Every person who offers gear, lends a hand, or helps another family is part of keeping Carter’s spirit and passion moving forward.
For Carter. For our community. For every young rider who loves to ride.
RIDE ON, CARTER. ♡
