The Pan-Mass Challenge (PMC) is the nation’s most successful bike-a-thon. To date, the PMC has raised over $200 million for life-saving cancer research.
Riders of all abilities, including novices, participate in this major charitable event. The average rider age is 43, and the age range is 15 to 80. More than 4,000 cyclists from the US and other countries participate.
70% of PMC riders are alumni and return each year with renewed enthusiasm and deeper commitments to the ride and cause. They consistently describe their experience as unbeatable.
