PlanetU
Planet Ultra is pleased to announce our partnership with Y-Me National Breast Cancer Organization in hosting the first annual "Ride To Empower."
The Ride to Empower is a destination bike ride, with fully-supported route lengths ranging from a 100-mile century to less than 32 miles. The Ride will take place during National Breast Cancer Awareness Month in Solvang, Calif., October 23-26, 2008, with the 1-day ride on October 25. This area is a prominent training ground for professional cycling teams and serves as host for the Discovery Channel pro-cycling team’s first training camp of the year. All of this will make Y-ME’s Ride to Empower an event you won’t want to miss.
The Ride to Empower offers the challenge to complete a long-distance cycling event, the opportunity to pay tribute to friends and loved ones touched by breast cancer, and an empowering and memorable 3-night and 4-day experience. Once registered, riders receive access to an expert training program, provided by a USA Cycling certified coach, to help guide both interested and avid cyclists to success.
Participants are required to raise a minimum of $4,000, and in exchange for successful fundraising efforts, riders will receive airfare (from within the contiguous U.S.), accommodations at a 3-star hotel and all meals. Y-ME will provide riders with fundraising tips and support to help riders meet their goals. Best of all, funds raised through the Ride to Empower will help Y-ME ensure that no one faces breast cancer alone.
What’s Included?
In exchange for successfully raising $4,000 or more, each rider will receive:
* Roundtrip airfare from within the contiguous U.S. to Solvang, California
* Ground transportation from airport to the hotel
* Hotel accommodations for three nights and all meals during the stay
* Technical support and round-trip bike transportation
* Access to expert cycling training program
* Group training rides and team gatherings
* Fundraising support
* Ride to Empower jersey and team T-shirt
We hope you'll join us!
