One of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society's biggest fundraising events, Bike MS, is happening all over the country. Learn dates, locations, and ways to get involved


Bike MS, a fundraising event sponsored by The Nat'l MS Society (the United States), is taking place across the country. I volunteered for the event last year and was inspired by all the bike teams who participated. There were olympic-level athletes as well as regular citizens trying to raise funds for friends and loved ones with MS. I look forward to my second event tomorrow.

Bike MS generally take place over a two day period, although some events are more challenging. Bicyclists travel routes that are dotted with rest stops, where volunteers and spectators provide refreshments and support. Participants can choose the amount of miles they would prefer to bike, according to their abilities.
