Make your mark against MS in 2012!
The Greater Carolinas Chapter offers three unique bike rides for cyclists of all abilities and ages. Bike MS is a fundraising event - all cyclists are required to raise a minimum of $300 to participate, but most raise much more to bring us closer to ending MS! Each ride offers stocked rest stops, bicycle mechanics, rider assistance whenever necessary, a commemorative T-shirt, a finish line meal and the sense of accomplishment that comes with helping to create a world free of MS.
