Please join me in a Tour de Tush Spoke Spin-off Series bike ride in honor of Rebecca.
Why we ride: It is estimated that nearly 153,000 people will be diagnosed with colorectal cancer this year. Colorectal cancer is the 2nd leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States and, by 2030, is projected to be the #1 cause of cancer deaths for adults under 50.
We are going the distance (in miles!) for all those affected by colorectal cancer while raising awareness and funds for research in the Tour de Tush Spokes Spin-off Series.
Together, we can make a difference! One hundred percent of the funds raised from this event will directly impact TBD.
Colorectal Cancer can be preventable, treatable, and beatable. Let's work together to spread awareness and funds for research to ensure this statement rings true.
