The MS Bike Tour is one of Canada’s longest running fundraisin­g bike rides. With 20 locations from coast to coast, Canadians have a lot of choice when it comes to where and when to have an impact in the fight against multiple sclerosis. First started in 1989, MS Bike Tours now host 8,000 riders per year and have raised an average of $8 million per year during the Past few years. “There are so many fantastic fundraisin­g events now, so people have a lot of choice,” said Namrata Peri, coordinato­r, event marketing for the MS Society of Canada. “We focus on making our events accessible for all levels of riders.” From a $20 registrati­on fee for the Toronto ride to more demanding, highly supported rides in the Okanagan and Outaouais regions of B.C. and Quebec, there are options for everyone.
