I don’t have a personal connection with someone who has MS
If you don’t have a personal connection with someone with MS, we’ll match you with an inspirational Champion Against MS to help make the MS Bike Tour a more meaningful experience. Dedicating your efforts will have a profound impact on both of you, giving you a connection and giving your inspirational Champion Against MS reassurance that he or she is not alone in their fight against MS.


I am already riding for someone with MS
If you are already riding for someone you know with MS, both you and your inspiration are already Champions Against MS. You can ride in honor of them and show your support in several different ways…

• Add their picture and why you are riding to your personal fundraising page
• Include their story in your fundraising campaign
• Honor them on our Wall of Hope (both at the event and online)
• Wear a Champions Against MS bib or bandana with their name(s) on it (bibs and bandanas will be available at Rider Check-Ins and at the event)
• Invite them to the event so they can cheer you on at the finish line each day!

I have MS and I would like to inspire others
If you are a person with MS signing up to be an inspirational Champion Against MS, you will make a wonderful difference. The cyclist(s) you are paired with will carry you in their thoughts throughout their two-day tour, raising money to help end the devastating effects of MS. If you would like, you may plan to meet your Champion Against MS at the Bike Tour to thank them for their participation or even send email correspondence. Helping others become connected to the mission of the National MS Society by sharing your story is the most important part of the program.
