Ride for Blood Cancer United (formerly The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society)

​

In the fall of 2025, a representative from Blood Cancer United contacted Summit Biking about a charity bike ride with a very important goal: a world without blood cancer.  Here is what they had to say......

​

"Each year we host America’s Most Beautiful Bike Ride, a scenic and inspiring event around Lake Tahoe that brings together cyclists from across the country to ride for a world without blood cancer.

​

We’d love to invite members of your club to join us for the 2026 ride. Whether riders come as individuals or as a team, it’s an incredible experience that combines breathtaking views, great camaraderie, and a powerful cause."

​
