Listen up familia, the third annual Velocity Ride goes down on Sunday, October 6, 2019. The annual bike ride is dedicated to raising vital funds to support cancer research and care at Columbia’s Herbert Irving Comprehensive Cancer Center. Velocity is a special way for the community, cancer patients, survivors, and their families to ride side by side with Columbia’s physicians and scientists who are working tirelessly toward a cure.
Whether you are an avid cyclist, a casual rider, or you are just looking for a great volunteer opportunity, Velocity has something for everyone.
Velocity gives riders the opportunity to choose their level of physical challenge: 10, 25, 45, or 62.5 miles (100 kilometers). The ride begins at four different start areas and riders merge together as one unstoppable force to cross the George Washington Bridge and end at 168th at the Columbia University Irving Medical Center.
