Why AANGCC Rides for the MS Society

Every mile we ride carries a purpose. For AANGCC, that purpose has a name: the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. Multiple Sclerosis is an unpredictable, often disabling disease of the central nervous system that disrupts the flow of information within the brain, and between the brain and body. Nearly 1 million people in the United States are living with MS — and millions more around the world. The National Multiple Sclerosis Society mobilizes people and resources to drive research for a cure and to address the challenges of everyone affected by MS. Through the BP MS 150 and other fundraising efforts, AANGCC members collectively raise thousands of dollars annually — every cent going directly toward MS research, programs, and advocacy. We ride because these stories stay with us. We ride for the mother who was diagnosed in her thirties and refuses to let MS define her life. We ride for the father at the finish line cheering on his daughter. We ride for those who cannot ride themselves. As long as those stories exist, so will our commitment.
