If riders choose to go on the whole ride, I am asking them to raise $2500 for the West Central Georgia Cancer Coalition.
If riders choose to ride the final week and meet me in Hope, IN on Sunday, October 14th, I am asking them to raise $1250 for the West Central Georgia Cancer Coalition.
Arrive back in Columbus by 5:00 on Friday, October 19th and participate in the Paint the Town Pink Event downtown
All moneys raised go to the West Central Georgia Cancer Coalition and not toward funding the rider’s expenses. Riders are responsible for their own expenses.
I would like every participant to have cancer ribbons and sponsor decals on their bikes if possible. Ideally, we would have one sponsor per bike.
**** I would like each rider’s decision about if and what portion they will be riding by Friday, June 15th. That way we can begin planning the ride and fundraising. ****
