The Challenge to Conquer Cancer (C3) bike ride exists to promote the advancement of cancer research and advocacy efforts locally, regionally and nationally through fund-raising fitness events like this CycleBar Spin Class Fundraiser. Our 501c3 organization is staffed by ALL volunteers who ride for the cause. We are a tribe of passionate cyclists who organize fundraising fitness events to raise money for cancer research and advocacy …because we can. Together we can provide hope, encouragement and unity to all those who are affected by cancer.
We will be riding our bikes from Greenville to Lewiston, Maine, a distance of over 1000 miles. We depart the GHS Cancer Center on Sunday morning, September 30, and should arrive in Maine 7 – 8 days later. We will arrive to participate in the Patrick Dempsey Challenge Event. Our ride honors those affected by cancer and we honor the memory of those who lost their battle with the disease. Each rider must raise a minimum of $5500, which goes to the GHS Center for Integrative Oncology Survivorship program, the GHS Cancer Center Research Program, the Patrick Dempsey Center for Hope & Healing, and the LiveStrong Foundation.
Our CycleBar Fundraiser will help Lauren and me meet our combined goal of raising $11000 +… come spin with us and let’s PEDAL CANCER INTO THE DUST!!!!
