Wheels of Fortune
JDRF Ride to Cure Diabetes
Riders from around the world take on two challenges: raising the money needed to fund research for better treatments and a cure for diabetes, and stretching themselves to reach a personal training goal in preparation for a fabulous destination cycling experience. The JDRF (formerly the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation) Ride to Cure Diabetes offers:
Multiple fundraising and mileage options
Training with a local USA Cycling certified coach
Gorgeous Ride destinations designed for riders of all fitness levels
Riders are given expert coaching and training. Even if you are not an everyday cyclist, JDRF’s USA cycling-certified coaches will work with you to develop a training program based on your individual needs and goals. New riders will accomplish goals they never thought they could achieve. Experienced cyclists can look forward to a 100 mile bike ride with breathtaking views, thorough support throughout the ride weekend, and becoming part of an amazing, motivated group dedicated to a cure for diabetes.
The journey begins by traveling to one of JDRF scenic Ride destination locations. You’ll meet up with fellow riders and begin a fun-filled weekend including optional excursions and team celebrations. It all leads up to the big event ... Ride Day and the chance to enter the “century” club of cycling 100 miles. ####
