Jimmy V Ride for Research and Cary Cycling Celebration

Aug. 19, 2008
Categorized in: Cary Real Estate
 

 

Sunday, August 17, 2008
Koka Booth Amphitheatre, Regency Park, Cary

Jim Valvano is a legendary icon in the Triangle.  Ever since he succumbed to cancer in 1993 his family has Jimmy V Foundation for Cancer Researchcarried on his legacy raising awareness of cancer and cancer research.  Earlier this month I wrote about the Jimmy V Rackets for Research which is a great event and a tremendous success.  Tomorrow the Jimmy V fundraisers continue with the 3rd Annual Jimmy V Ride for Research and Cary Cycling Celebration.  They are expecting over 500 cyclists so watch out for traffic delays and cyclists near the Regency area tomorrow. 

 


 

Distances:

1. 25 miles (departs 10:00 a.m.)

2. 50 miles (departs 7:00 a.m.)

3. 75 miles (departs 7:00 a.m.; follows the 50 and 25 mile routes)

4. 100 miles (departs 7:00 a.m.)

   

 

 

 

   If you've been motivated by the Tour de France this year this event is a good option to grab a bike and head to the event!  It's great exercise and a wonderful cause to support. 

There are a number of options for the cyclists ranging from a 25 mile ride all the way up to a Century Ride.

Other options for family members include a bicycle rodeo for kids aged 6-12 and family fun tours in the afternoon. 

I hope you enjoy the fun!
