The Carolina Cycle Challenge is our area’s premiere fun ride to benefit the fight against pediatric cancer. Taking over from Brett’s Ride, the CCC is powered by the Rotary Clubs of the Catawba Valley and last year donated $50,000 (which was matched by the generous help of the Leon Levine Foundation) to the Levine Children’s Hospital. At 10, 32 and 55 miles (plus the Tot Zone for the little ones), we have a ride for every skill level!
Because of your participation and the generous support of our many sponsors, the inaugural Carolina Cycle Challenge raised $50,000 for pediatric cancer research. The Leon Levine Foundation, a group as devoted as we are to fighting this insidious disease, matched your gift dollar for dollar. Together, we contributed $100,000 to save our children from childhood cancers.
The CCC Team has a tremendous passion for raising money for Pediatric Cancer Research. This passion is matched by people, and companies like yours, who ride for and help underwrite The Challenge.
If you are a bicycling enthusiast or like to enjoy a family-oriented bicycling event, come and join us on Sunday Oct. 5, 2014 at the Hickory Foundation YMCA for one of the most enjoyable cycling events in North Carolina.
The 2014 Challenge has a new twist – we have created a new 55 mile (82 km) ride that adds 3 miles to the old ride while smoothing out a few hills.
As a rider or a sponsor, you or your company can help with this deserving cause that shows thousands of people in our community how much you care. It’s a perfect combination of fun, charity and challenge.
We look forward to seeing you on October 5th, 2014! Electronic registration is easier than ever at BikeReg.com. Walk-up registration is still available at Rock n Road bicycles in Hickory at 2435 North Center Street in Hickory, NC.
