EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn., May 21, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- RE/MAX Results has partnered with Charity Events of Minnesota for the 8th Annual Breast Cancer Ride, a one-day bicycle ride to raise money to support the fight against breast cancer. The Ride will take place on Saturday, August 8th, and will start and end at the Eagan Community Center. Participants will be asked to raise a minimum of $350 in donations and will be able to choose from six different beneficiaries; Open Arms of Minnesota, The Firefly Sisterhood, Breast Cancer Education Association, Angel Foundation, Masonic Cancer Center at the University of Minnesota, and Susan G. Komen for the Cure Minnesota.
Over the years, nearly 2,000 people have participated in the Breast Cancer Ride and raised more than $1.2M. Donations are off to a strong start at more than $30,000 raised so far this year.
"My husband and I have been proud riders for 6 of the last 7 years and will be pleased to be a rider again this year," said Lynn Foulke, CEO of RE/MAX Results. "It's wonderful to be part of such a positive experience knowing that your participation truly makes a difference. I love how donors can self-direct their donations to a choice of multiple Breast Cancer beneficiaries and also that a respectable long riding distance can be completed in one day. Whether volunteering or riding, it's a super fun and well organized event."
The Ride has multiple course lengths to choose from ranging from 12 to 65 miles. Riders may choose individual routes or combine routes to complete their desired distance. The Ride is open to anyone to participate although those under the age of 18 will need to be accompanied by an adult who is also registered for the Ride. Volunteer opportunities are also available.
