About The Ride
[about the ride - details - categories]

Rider Categories

Breast Cancer Survivors will be offered a physical and emotional healing experience as they reach beyond their cancer diagnosis to train for and complete this cycling adventure. From the beginning, registered breast cancer survivors will receive support from a variety of professionals and volunteers as they set and reach their individual goals. Ongoing training rides and safety workshops will empower survivors with the skills and confidence to participate: BECAUSE THEY CAN.

Survivor Supporters, who are family, friends and community members will celebrate the courage and resiliency of breast cancer survivors as they ride, volunteer, sponsor and donate.
