Novingers launch 2,000-mile ride to spotlight fraud-victim tax relief

Aaron and Rebecca Novinger have started their third annual Pedaling Against Ponzis ride from the Dallas-Fort Worth area to Washington, D.C., aiming to raise awareness of IRS Form 4684 Section C and build support for fraud victims. The cross-country trip also backs a national petition at PonziRelief.org as the couple pushes for broader recognition of recovery tools for Ponzi scheme victims.

Why it matters: - IRS Form 4684 Section C is presented as a recovery tool that can provide eligible fraud victims with up to a 95% income credit on losses. - The ride is designed to bring attention to Ponzi scheme victims, who often face long-term financial damage and limited public visibility. - The campaign also seeks signatures on the PonziRelief.org petition to show national support for fraud relief.

What happened: - Aaron and Rebecca Novinger launched the 3rd annual Pedaling Against Ponzis ride on June 21, 2026. - Aaron is riding a bright blue, human-powered velomobile from the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex to the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C. - The trip covers 2,000 miles. - Rebecca Novinger is handling logistics, safety and national outreach from the couple’s home office.

The details: - The ride uses a custom, ultra-bright blue aerodynamic velomobile with no motor. - The Novingers say the ride’s focus this year is awareness, after earlier rides concentrated on lobbying to preserve a tax loophole from expiring. - Supporters can follow the ride daily on Facebook at Pedaling Against Ponzis. - Media availability includes live phone or Zoom interviews with Aaron Novinger while he is on the road. - The campaign says it can provide B-roll, high-resolution photos and daily video dispatches for media use. - Press availability is planned upon arrival at the U.S. Capitol.

Between the lines: - The ride blends advocacy, awareness and public pressure, using a highly visible endurance event to draw attention to a technical tax provision. - The focus on signatures and social media outreach suggests the Novingers are trying to turn a niche tax issue into a broader fraud-recovery campaign. - The recurring ride format gives the effort a built-in narrative and a way to keep the issue in front of lawmakers and survivors.

What's next: - The Novingers plan to continue the ride from Texas to Washington, D.C., with daily updates along the route. - The campaign will keep collecting petition signatures and promoting Form 4684 Section C awareness as the ride moves toward the Capitol. - Media interviews and arrival coverage are expected when Aaron Novinger reaches Washington.
