Cyclists from across the region will soon hit the road to raise money and awareness for people living with multiple sclerosis (MS). The annual MS Bike Grand Bend to London ride takes place on Saturday and Sunday. Riders will begin at the Grand Bend Motorplex on Saturday, cycle to London, then return to Grand Bend on Sunday.
Dylan Murphy, Community Fundraising Coordinator with MS Canada, says the event gives people a chance to challenge themselves while supporting an important cause.
Money raised helps MS Canada fund research, connect people with support programs, and advocate for better care and services for those living with MS.
There is still time to register for the ride. Participants can sign up until the Friday before the event, but riders must raise at least $500 before taking part.
MS Canada is also looking for volunteers to help during the event.
This roles include helping with rider check-in, rest stops, photography, and cheering participants across the finish line
More information about registering or volunteering is available on the MS Canada website.
