Greetings!

I hope you've been keeping well :)

I've started to receive word about in-person charity cycling events for 2021.  Here is what we know so far:

Bike MS Atlanta Peachride 2021 : LaGrange, GA : October 9th & 10th

Indeed, Bike MS has a bunch of in-person events for 2021 across the USA.  See their Find Your Ride page for more details.

I will send out more details via the mailing list as we get closer to these events.  Please let me know of any other events you're aware of that could use motorcycle support and I'll get the word out :)
