Ride Information

The CT Challenge bike ride is a non-competitive premiere cycling event benefiting an exceptional cause.  We welcome riders of all abilities and ages!

The bike ride is a required fundraising event.

Everyone who registers to ride has a required minimum amount to raise before September 27, 2013.

On or after that date, any remaining balance of that commitment will be charged to the credit card used at the time of registration.

There are several ride distances to choose from, including 10, 25, 50, 75, a challenging 100-mile ride – “New England’s Toughest Century, and new for 2013, a 2-day ride starting in scenic Lakeville, CT.

The Connecticut Challenge is an event filled with

• Exercise
• Emotion
• Camaraderie
• Great rider gifts for fundraising
• A celebration of cancer survivors
• Delicious food, live music & fun for the entire family

Ride as an individual, start a team, or join a team.

All cancer survivors are invited to the Walk of Honor during opening ceremonies.

When you register, your credit card will be charged only for your registration fee and any donation you choose to make to your own fundraising account.
