Livestrong teams have completed two endurance rides this summer: RAGBRAI and the Leadville Trail 100 MTB! RAGBRAI riders spent a week camping and cycling 434 miles across the great state of Iowa, and Leadville racers braved 100 miles through the Rocky Mountains in the famous "Race Across the Sky." Together, these two teams, which included 3 cancer survivors, raised over $140K to support Livestrong's programs that improve cancer survivors' quality of life. Thank you, Team Livestrong riders!
