Cyclists
Many participants are serious cyclists who are drawn by Bike MS's reputation for well-organized supported rides. Others are primarily interested in raising funds for MS research and services. Many riders know someone who lives with MS; some live with MS themselves. All agree to a minimum fundraising goal as a condition of participation but are encouraged to exceed it. Event participants have access to online fundraising tools to help them solicit and keep track of donations.
Cyclists need to possess basic bike-handling skills and safety knowledge in order to keep themselves and others around them safe, especially while participating in group cycling activities like Bike MS. Helmet use is mandatory.
