Terry Fox Ride of Hope
Join Terry Foxers far and wide as we ride around the world in one day raising funds for cancer research!
The Terry Fox Foundation is excited to offer an annual Terry Fox Ride of Hope, a fundraiser for much needed cancer research. Last year our goal was to try and achieve a cumulative goal of riding 40,000km while raising money for cancer research. This year will be our biggest try yet! Will you ride for 24 hours? Ride around your local trails? Or maybe just pull the bike out that you haven’t used in 10 years. It’s up to you to define your try!
Event Details
Who: Anyone! There is no minimum age requirement, no minimum donation, and no registration fee.
What: That’s up to you! What will be your biggest try? A 24 hour straight ride? Riding around your local neighbourhood? Or an indoor ride on your favourite stationary bike.
When: Saturday, July 3, 2021 (or any day that works best for you)
Where: Participants can take part from anywhere; all you need is a bike, helmet and the perseverance to go the extra mile to save lives. Call up your friends and families, or your weekend warrior buddies, and set up your fundraising page today! There is no set distance, you decide where and how far you’d like to go.
Why: For cancer research. We want to see what your biggest try will be this year. Will you get on your bike for the first time in 10 years? Will you challenge yourself to bike 20+ kilometres farther than you’ve ever gone before? Will you challenge yourself to cycle for 24 hours? It’s up to you!
