Thank you for your participation in Bike MS! You are now a significant and most valued contributor in the fight against MS. With your help, we are able to provide vital programs for people with MS and help fund research for a cure. This is why we ride.
Fundraising is one of the most important elements of Bike MS. PA Dutch cyclists are required to raise at least the minimum pledge of $250, and City to Shore cyclists are required to raise at least $300. However, the majority of riders go far above and beyond the fundraising minimum. Remember, donations to the National MS Society are tax-deductible.
