Train for the V-Ride This Weekend (5.16.20)

bike gear

May 16, the original date for the Victory Ride to Cure Cancer, is upon us. If you had planned to participate in the ride before the V-Ride was postponed (or even if you hadn't), you're invited to join Team DCI co-captains Michael Kastan, MD, PhD, and Ryan Switzer for a free-of-charge virtual training Victory Ride on that date instead.
 
What's a "virtual" ride? Unlike many events these days, it's not over Zoom. It's a real ride — whether on your road bicycle or your Peloton or other stationary bike — just not in a crowd. Apart, but together in spirit!

FIRST: Join the “Victory Ride to Cure Cancer” club on the Strava app, then join the May 16 event within that club. [If you don’t already have the app, you will need to download it (it’s free) and create a free account.] 

NEXT: On May 16, at 9 a.m., select a 10, 30, 60 or 100-mile V-Ride route through the Strava app OR choose a route/trail of your own. Show your Team DCI spirit! Put on a DCI or Duke jersey, if you have one, and get rollin'.

THEN: Take photos and/or videos of your ride, post them on social media and tag @DukeCancer @TheVictoryRide #TheVictoryRide or simply email them to us. We’d love to see your favorite riding location or training partner. Children and pets are welcome!
 

This virtual training ride is a great way to train for the Victory Ride, to be held on September 5 !  Register for the September V-Ride and start fundraising for a great cause !
