    CIPLA is starting a team again for Bike MS: Pedal to the Point! Registration is now open for this year’s ride on August 10, 2024. Last year, CIPLA members & friends raised around $5,000 for MS. This money helps fund research and provide equipment/resources for those suffering from MS. In addition to the actual race day, the team plans to get together for practice rides and social events this summer.

    SIGN UP at https://mssociety.donordrive.com/team/CIPLAcycles. Registration fees increase in April, so register soon!

    • Team Code: CIPLA2024
    • Discount Code: BikeMS24


    More information can be found below and also on the Bike MS website.

    Don’t let the mileage intimidate you! There are 35, 75, and 100 mile routes available. Last year, most of the team rode the 35 miles and majority of it was flat land. There are support vehicles that can take you back to your car if you need to cut your ride short. Rest stops with bathrooms, snacks, and water are available every 10-12 miles.

    There is a $300 fundraising minimum per rider that must be met before you pick up your Bike MS packet. If you need to change your mileage as the race date gets closer, you can do so in your rider online portal.

    For the 75 and 100 mile riders, the ride starts in Berea, OH @ 6:30am and finishes at Sawmill Creek Resort (400 Sawmill Creek Dr. W., Huron, OH 44839). There are buses available at no additional charge to transport you and your bike back to Berea, OH after the ride. For the 35 mile riders, the ride begins at 8:30am and starts/ends at Sawmill Creek Resort. Note - there is an option to spend the night at Sawmill Creek and ride back to Berea the following day, August 11th.

    Please contact the team captains, Anna Nelson (anna.nelson@tuckerellis.com) and Nate Lovette (nathan.lovette@tuckerellis.com), with any questions.

    We hope you can join us in our ride and our fight against MS.
