I couldn't find any info on this event on the American Cancer Society's website, so it is probably a local event, rather than national.
I don't know if I'll be in good enough shape to handle the 50 miler, so I'm tentatively planning on doing the 30 miler.

So What is Walk & Roll North Shore?

Every May walkers, cyclists, and skaters come together in the fight against cancer, raising money for the continued support of the American Cancer Society’s mission to eliminate cancer as a major health problem by preventing the disease, saving lives and diminishing suffering. At Walk & Roll North Shore, teams and individuals take part in a 5 mile walk, a 10 mile bike ride, a 30 mile bike ride, or a 50 mile bike ride.
