The Coast to Coast Against Cancer Foundation’s Inside Ride returns to the Cloverdale Recreation Centre late next month and recruiting has begun.
Last year, 25 teams raised $35,000 in Cloverdale, more than half of the $62,000 the all rides took in that weekend across B.C.
One hundred per cent of the funds raised will help support families in B.C. who have a child with cancer.
Organizers are recruiting team captains, riders, volunteers, supporters and newbies for this year’s Cloverdale ride on Friday May 27, starting at 7 p.m.
This will be the sixth Inside Ride, but it’s a first for this time of year.
The ride has been switched to spring in order to take advantage of better weather and staffing. It’s also a better time to get schools and students involved, organizers say.
Here’s how the event works: Teams of six take turns riding a stationary bike (10 minutes at a time), accompanied by great music and tons of fun.
Team themes and costumes are optional, but fun is mandatory.
