BIKE MS PROFILED RIDER

ild bike ms craig johnsonCraig Johnson has over two decades of Bike MS experience under his belt, and going strong at age 67, he seems poised to hit the quarter century mark. Johnson plans to continue riding for as long as he is capable, because he learned from his best friend, Evans, that he should never take a movement for granted.

REGISTRATION MINIMUMS

To continue our efforts to find a cure for MS, every rider is required to raise a minimum of $300, even tandem riders (registration fees are not applicable).

The $300 minimum must be met to pick up your rider number. If the minimum is not met by that time, the person will be required to fill out a Promise to Pay form ensuring payment by July 31.

The Promise to Pay form requires that you provide a valid credit card number to be charged only if the $300 minimum is not met by the July 31 deadline. Multiple follow-ups will take place before any credit cards are charged.
