What is the MS
Bike Ride?

The MS Bike Ride is a two-day cycling adventure
that raises funds to help fund research to find a cure for MS.

You ride 75 miles the first day and complete the 150 total miles by riding the same route back the next day.

Remember this is a ride ... not a race!

The nice thing about the MS bike is that it is what is called "fully supported" which means that as soon as you start the tour you have a full support crew helping you.  This support includes:

SAG Wagons
(People in vehicles giving Support And Gear)
They ride along with us on the route - just in case we need some help.
HAM radio operators
(To ensure we are all safe)
Supported "Pit Stops" about every 10 miles

Food,
Take a break,
Visit with other riders,
Get a drink of water, Gatorade/PowerAde,
Bike mechanical service,
Medical support,
Bathrooms

Full banquet the night of the first day
Many other little things that make the tour a lot of fun.

Remember that because this is a ride (not a race) it does not matter how fast you do the ride.  It matters most that you are out there on the road riding to raise awareness of Multiple Sclerosis.

This is a fun way for friends and families to get together, raise some money for MS research, and have a huge sense of accomplishment.
