THE START OF THE 70-DAY JOURNEY BEGINS WITH ONE (TEXAS-SIZED) EVENT!

This year, we’re taking a fresh approach with one Ride Launch event. It will begin with optional bike rides around Austin, allowing anyone to fight cancer every mile before joining us on the UT campus. There, we’ll gather for our customary ceremony. The official Ride Launch of the 2024 team’s summer journey from Austin, TX, to Anchorage, AK, will follow, followed by a Block Party with food trucks, games, and a kid’s zone from 9am to noon.
