Leading up to the in-person bike ride, participants can join virtual events from Monday, September 9 –  Sunday, September 15, 2024 for spinners, runners, walkers, and bikers on the Strava app. This virtual world allows for a global community to get involved with our cause, including friends and family both near and far.
