Rider Profile

Dear Friends and Family Members,
I'm signed up to ride 50 miles for BellRinger, a bike ride and community movement to end cancer. It's scheduled for October 26, 2024, and I hope that you'll be able to support my ride benefiting the Georgetown Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center in its mission.

I am very grateful to those of you who contributed to my ride over the past two years, and I hope that you'll consider doing the same this year. Or even better, please consider joining me on the ride itself. The distances are 25, 50 and 100 miles, and the BellRinger team is extremely supportive in helping train newer or less experienced riders to acclimate themselves to complete the ride (I was one of them!). For those of you who are Georgetown alumni, we have an alumni team that I am captaining, and I would love to have you join me (and all non-Hoyas welcome too!).

Last year, there were almost 1,000 riders from all ages, backgrounds, biking experiences and professions on the ride. As you might expect, the Lombardi Center was well represented with participants - staff members, nurses, researchers all came out of the hospital, clinics and offices in order to participate in the ride. It was a heartwarming experience to be surrounded by people who were all joined in the common cause of pushing back against cancer.

The Lombardi Center is one of the nation's top cancer centers, and the funds which are raised will support groundbreaking research working toward prevention, earlier diagnosis, care and treatment of cancer, impacting the outcomes of cancer care in DC and beyond.
Thank you for considering supporting my Ride!

Nancy
