This year's event will kick off during Blood Cancer Awareness Month (BCAM) with an online celebration on Sept. 25 and will conclude with an in-person cycling event at the Barnesville School of Arts and Sciences. Over the past 15 years, the Lymphoma Research Ride has been a signature event as part of LRF's Team LRF community fundraising program and raised more than $6 million in support of LRF research programs and its support of the lymphoma community. Following social distancing best practices, the Ride will be limited to a total of 200 riders. All skill levels are welcome, and riders can choose between a 10-, 25-, 40- or 50-mile route. Participants who prefer to ride alone or with a small group can register as an Offsite Ride to plan their own route, or join through the interactive fitness platform Peloton.

We're excited to welcome back riders from across the country this year and raise critical funds for the Foundation."
