BIKE MS: 2010 WRAP UP
In 2010, the Central PA Chapter hosted two bike MS events …
bike MS: Mason-Dixon Challenge, a one-day event in Gettysburg,
and bike MS: To Paradise and Back presented by Capital BlueCross, a two-day event in Millersville.
Record heat and tornado watches did not deter our cyclists from
pedaling for the cause in Millersville. Our volunteers showed their commitment and expertise,
working together to make sure all of our cyclists were well hydrated and safe in a secure location when the storm hit our finish line.
We received overwhelmingly positive feedback from cyclists and volunteer in Gettysburg, and
we look forward to returning there next year – see below!
Donations from participants and sponsors of both events came to over $281,000.
