Ride 4 Life Ministry · 2026 Season

We bring light
into dark places.

From the depth
of dysfunction

A motorcycle rock star with everything and nothing. A courtroom on October 4, 2011. A Great Interception. Now he rides for one reason.

Stunts stop the crowd.
Jesus changes the life.

Prisons. Streets. Schools. Wherever the road goes dark, we ride in.

The Jesus Journey

The Great Interception

Founder Scott Caraboolad, in his own words: the depth of his dysfunction is the measure of his love for Jesus.

17

The floor

A loving mother and father. Then at 17, Scott walked in to watch his dad die on the living room floor. Hate, anger and resentment moved into his heart.

STARBOYZ

The rock star

Out of Akron, Scott co-founded the Starboyz, the crew credited with kicking off the sportbike stunt craze. Their first tape sold 1,000 copies in three days. National shows, his own Stunt Fest, a fur-covered bike. Millions of dollars, and empty from morning to night.

THE FALL

The spiral

Xanax to antidepressants to alcohol to painkillers to cocaine. He lost everything, with court dates all over the country.

The interception

Walking out of court on October 4, 2011, Scott planned not to see the next day. Defeated, but with his ego still driving, he went to see his mother one last time.

MOM

She saw it

Sensing something was terribly wrong, she insisted he go to a meeting. A tattooed young man just like him delivered the message that redirected his life. The desire for every substance, removed.

Ride 4 Life

Now the bike is the pulpit. Scott rides into prisons, streets and schools with a message of love and hope for the afflicted and addicted.

He saved the most wretched man on the planet. That was me.
Scott Caraboolad · Founder
What we do

Three roads.
One message.

Our stunt team creates high-energy experiences in places a pulpit never reaches: community events, schools and prisons. The bike draws the crowd. The truth does the rest.

Prison

Every week, behind the walls

Week in and week out, behind the walls with no filter. Scott's discipleship class was built here, and it is changing men who thought they were done.

  • Volunteer teams

Community events, rallies and city streets. The engine roars, the crowd gathers, and thousands have heard the Gospel and said yes to Jesus.

  • Live stunt shows
  • Street preaching
  • Community events

Growing in the schools

School assemblies are back and growing. In 2026 we returned to the classroom in partnership with ASAP America, and we are opening more doors for the spring. Bring us to your school.

Why it works

Not religion.
Relationship.

"It's not religion to me. It's just falling in love with Jesus. That's my mission." Scott lives like tomorrow isn't promised, so he doesn't sugarcoat. That honesty is why people listen.

01

The bike opens the door

A stunt show gathers people who would never walk into a church.

02

The messenger has been there

Addiction, loss, courtrooms. Nobody in the room can say he doesn't understand.

03

Life or death truth

No prosperity pitch, no fluff. Just Jesus, delivered straight.

04

Discipleship after the decision

A yes at the show becomes a walk, through the class, the content and the community.

What we're riding toward

Most people assume a ministry like this is covered. The truth: Ride 4 Life has been running on a bare minimum budget, with Scott doing almost everything himself. Here is where more help goes.

01

The discipleship class, online

Built in the prisons. People on social media keep asking when they can join. We want to launch it the right way, with moderators.

02

Deeper in the prisons

More facilities, more weeks, more volunteers. There is so much more room to grow behind the walls.

03

Every message answered

Scott gets more messages from people seeking help than one man can answer. Hired help means nobody gets left on read.

04

More schools, more streets

We are growing our youth and school ministry with partners like ASAP America, and we can never do enough street outreach. Open a door for us.
