What to Know
A ride for breast cancer awareness
The Cancer Freedom Ride brings New York's riding community together around breast cancer awareness. Motorcycles and three-wheelers take part in a shared ride that recognizes people living with cancer, survivors and the families supporting them.
Local riding groups come together
Freedom Bloxx, Team Spyder NY and Ride to Reset are among the groups associated with the ride. Their involvement links motorcycle clubs with the wider bikelife community, a term for the friendships and group activities built around riding.
Patient support beyond the ride
The American Cancer Society's New York City Hope Lodge provides free lodging for eligible cancer patients and caregivers who travel to the city for outpatient treatment. A place to stay near care is one practical part of the wider support available to people affected by cancer.
