Riders4Research welcomes you to the 4th Annual

Riders4Research
Exhale Fall Charity Ride
Sunday, October 5, 2008
Metamora, MI

A Fundraiser to Benefit Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation


EVENT

The 4th Annual Riders4Research Exhale Fall Charity Ride is a dirt road and paved road cycling event that travels through scenic Metamora, Michigan. The event is a fundraiser to raise awareness and donations supporting Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation International (JDRF).

Since its inception, the Exhale Ride has donated 100% of all proceeds to JDRF. Riders4Research and Team o2 have received the JDRF Silver Achievement Award for the past two years for raising over $26,000. Over the past three years, hundreds of riders have participated in the event and raised over $32,000 for JDRF, primarily through registration fees.

This year, the Exhale Ride is asking participants to seek donations to support their participation in the ride, with the goal of raising exponential funds for JDRF.
