With cancer patients top of mind, more than 126 Bristol Myers Squibb employees rode nearly 3,000 miles cross-country this September with the goal of raising $1 million in support of the V Foundation for Cancer Research in an annual event called Coast 2 Coast 4 Cancer (C2C4C).

All riders have been personally impacted by cancer and they are passionate about helping to drive progress in cancer research and transform patients’ lives. The riders volunteer their personal time to fundraise and extensively train for five months for their approximately 225-mile segment over a three-day period.

Whether it’s one of the cyclists riding from coast to coast this year, or one of the V Foundation-funded scientists working toward a cure, the ride demonstrates that one person can truly make a difference. To learn more and support Coast 2 Coast 4 Cancer, visit www.cancerbikeride.org.
