Once again, it appears that mother nature is not cooperating with us. If you planned to join us on our Annual Celebration Ride on Sept. 22, we have made the decision to cancel the event due to a forecast of snow and possible freezing rain. After many discussions with our safety experts and steering committee, we all agreed that safety is our number one priority and we do not wish to put any of you at risk while riding your bikes or when driving to Sundre.

We still have much to celebrate in this 10th year of . In order to recognize your incredible contributions, we invite you to join us to our 2018 Rider Recognition Nights, taking place on Oct. 16 in Calgary and Oct. 18 in Edmonton. Click here for more info: https://bit.ly/2QMUjoD

Our team alone raised over $370,000 for cancer research, with more still trickling in! Amazing!

This year, the Alberta Ride raised $8.12 million! Outstanding!!

Over 10 years, the ride has raised $74 million! Stupendous!!!

We should all be proud, and know that we are one step closer to conquering cancer.
