Join Le Tour de France From Your Own Backyard
in 2022 Ride, Events, Fundraising, Team JDRF
Hello Team Mountain West!
The 2022 Le Tour de France kicks off at the beginning of July (July 1 through 24 to be exact!) and that means it’s time for a challenge centered around JDRF’s Ride to Cure Diabetes.
Here’s how it works: hop on your bike (or Peloton!) every day during Le Tour (July 1 – July 24) and log miles using the Strava app. Whether you ride 5 miles or 100 miles, every stride counts! The top 3 people who log the most miles on the most days throughout Le Tour will receive a credit to their fundraising, thanks to Jordan and Michele Scharg as well as Tom and Annette Kissinger.
Here’s the details for how YOU can earn a $500 fundraising credit:
- Register on Team Mountain West for the JDRF Ride to Cure Diabetes by visiting ride.jdrf.org.
- You must join the JDRF Mountain West Strava group to track your miles; CLICK HERE to join the group.
- Remember, curing diabetes is a team sport! Be sure to share your progress on social media and include a link to your fundraising page.
- 1st place (logging miles on the most days) receives $500, 2nd place receives $250 and 3rd place receives $100 towards their Ride fundraising, thanks to Jordan and Michele Scharg as well as Tom and Annette Kissinger.
Now let’s ride… Together!
