VeloSano Bike to Cure will take place Sept. 6-7, 2024. VeloSano is a fundraising movement created to enable the cancer treatments of today and the cures of tomorrow through innovative, transformative research happening at Cleveland Clinic locations around the world.

Registration is now open for Bike to Cure, the annual flagship fundraising event in which 100% of dollars raised by participants support lifesaving cancer research at Cleveland Clinic and Cleveland Clinic Children’s. The public can register to participate at velosano.org.

Bike to Cure weekend will include a kickoff party on Friday, Sept. 6, that will bring riders and supporters together to support “Living Hope” cancer survivors and patients, honor legacies and cheer the progress being made in cancer research at Cleveland Clinic. Food, beverages and music will be offered on Mall B in downtown Cleveland.

Saturday, Sept. 7, is ride day. Available route distances are 12, 25, 50, 75 and 100 miles, as well as the Guardians City Loop Ride, a one-lap, six-mile loop around downtown Cleveland. Ideal for families and beginner riders, the Guardians City Loop highlights city landmarks including a lap around Progressive Field. Those who register as virtual fundraisers can choose their own activity and participate in any way, anytime, and anywhere to fundraise for cancer research at Cleveland Clinic.

Since its inception in 2014, more than $51 million has been raised for cancer research at Cleveland Clinic. Dollars from founding partners, including the Kohl Fund and the Cleveland Guardians, support VeloSano signature events and sustain year-round fundraising operations.
