Advancement Peloton Updates

Hello team! We are up to 49 riders, virtual riders, and volunteers – WAY TO GO! We still need your help recruiting more riders and virtual riders. If each member of our team would recruit one more rider and one more virtual rider, we would have nearly 150 members on our peloton! Let’s aim high – your help is greatly appreciated! Our goal in all of this - TO END CANCER. Please E-mail Lindsey at lindsey.gale@osumc.edu when folks register so she can add them to the peloton.
