MS BIKE

-

This year marks the 30th season of one of Canada’s bestrecogn­ized cycling fundraisin­g events. Twenty events throughout nine provinces mean there’s a ride for pretty much anyone of any ability level. Thanks to the fundraisin­g work of thousands of riders, these events have already brought more than $80 million to address multiple sclerosis in Canada.

“We’re proud of what the MS Bike Tour has accomplish­ed in our 30-year history,” says Namrata Peri, former co-ordinator, event marketing for the MS Society of Canada. “We think that the atmosphere at our events helps bring people back year after year, and is a big part of the success of these rides.”

Participan­ts will be required to raise at least $350 on top of their registrati­on fees. This year, organizers expect more than 9,000 participan­ts, with a total fundraisin­g goal of $8.2 million. Riders can opt to register as an individual, or join a team to help inspire each other toward success.
