The JDRF Southern Nevada Chapter ride team is training and fundraising to ride various distances up to 100 miles in Loveland, Colorado at the end of August.

The team of thirteen riders includes three junior riders, three people living with T1D, parents of kids with T1D, medical professionals, chapter board members, and friends invested in helping the Southern Nevada Chapter support better treatments and a cure for type 1 diabetes.

The commitment to get the team of riders to Colorado is $60,000 so they are offering a variety of fundraisers to help them get to their goal.

JDRF Ride socks and t-shirts can be purchased from Gizmo Socks. Due to generous donations, 100% of the purchase of the items goes directly to the ride team and shipping is free on all purchases.

Nevada residents also have the opportunity to purchase raffle tickets for a custom beer pong table. The raffle winner will have the opportunity to customize the top of the table with the design of their choice. Contact the JDRF office to purchase your raffle ticket today!

You can check out the ride team on the JDRF ride website or keep up with their training efforts on their Facebook page.
