2008 Ride Details!

The first two rides (2006 and 2007) were very successful fundraising events for CF and have been memorable experiences for the riders. We look forward to participants creating new memories for everyone and hope for all CF families.

What is Cystic Fibrosis?

Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a fatal inherited disease. CF affects mainly the lungs and the digestive system. In the lungs, CF causes severe breathing problems.

We Need Your Help!

Every year, too many children and young adults die from this terrible disease. All across Canada, parents of children with CF are hoping that we will find a cure in time to save their child.
