The Purpose of the Ride2Survive

We have set a minimum donation level of $2,500. You must realize that the purpose of this event is to help continue the fight against cancer and that fight requires money. A very real illustration of this truth is that if Terry Fox were fighting his battle with cancer today, he would likely survive, directly because of the money he raised that went into research!

  • If your purpose to ride this ride is solely for the personal, physical challenge, then this may not be the right event for you unless you marry the physical challenge with a financial one.
  • Please remember that a ton of time and effort goes into organizing and running this event from some very dedicated and talented people... They are not doing this for you to have a ride, they are doing this for the purpose of enabling the Ride2Survive to take place and what it means to the cause of fighting cancer.
