About

Ride The Big Sky® 

After many years of competing as both an amateur and professional flat track racer, and through promotion of nearly 20 years of flat track racing events in Montana, it became clear to the founder Michael Marsh that young riders and their families were in need of better and replacement safety equipment. Further, when the Recreational Action Sports Entertainment, LLC sponsored rider and good friend Charlotte Kainz was killed in a racing event in 2016, Michael became more determined than ever to help the kids of the sport.  RASE Safety Assistance, Inc. is the result of Michael's lifetime and experience both with motorcycles and in the claims industry.

RASE Safety Assistance, Inc. is an IRS approved non-profit corporation (501 (c)(3)). Formed in 2021, RASE Safety Assistance exists to help provide access to the best safety equipment available to amateur and professional athletes. The only way for our kids and their families to enjoy riding and racing under the Big Sky of Montana is to keep them as safe as possible.
