Event Bike MS: Ride Across Minnesota Registration

What's Included

Bike MS^® is more than just a ride. It’s a community of cyclists dedicated to powering breakthroughs for more than 1 million people living with multiple sclerosis in the US.

At Bike MS, we are committed to providing you with a fully-supported ride experience marked with passion, inspiration and camaraderie you will never forget. With rest stops every 8-12 miles, mechanical and medical support, ride marshals, and volunteers ready to provide assistance before, during and after the ride, Bike MS will be the ride of a lifetime.

The ride is 5 days with varying mileage each day, but riders may do only a few days if they choose. They must manage their own transportation to get to start and finish line.

Go here to register. Registration closes at noon on Friday, July 28
1. The cost for the ride is the same if you chose to do less than 5 days.
2. Must raise $300 to ride.
3. Packet Pick-up Schedule If these times don’t work for you and you don’t know someone that can get your packet for you, please reach out to a staff person on-site the day you are starting.

The minimum age to ride is 12. See the Youth Riders section below for additional requirements for cyclists under the age of 18.
The fundraising minimum is $300.
Walk-up registrations are gladly accepted. However, we recommend registering early so you can fundraise and make an even greater impact.
We ride rain or shine. In the event of lightning or other dangerous weather-related conditions, please check the event website and email updates.
Helmets are required at all times. No exceptions.
Support and Gear (SAG) vehicles are available to transport any cyclists in need so personal vehicles are prohibited on the route and at rest stops.
Pets are not allowed at the ride. However, service animals are welcome.

Families are such a big part of Bike MS and we love seeing them out on the road! To make sure our youngest participants remain safe, here are some special requirements for cyclists under the age of 18:

All riders must be at least 12 years of age on or before event day – NO EXCEPTIONS.
All youth riders (ages 12-17) must review the Safety in Group Cycling brochure with a parent or guardian before setting out.
Youth riders must be accompanied by a parent or responsible adult (at least 21 years of age) at all times.
One parent/adult may be responsible for no more than three youth riders.
All the above requirements apply for children on a tandem bicycle.
No trailers, tagalongs or child carriers are allowed on the route.

Want to join in, but riding in-person isn't for you? Register as a Virtual Cyclist! Virtual Cycling allows you to fundraise and earn perks and prizes, while setting your own plan for riding.

What are the requirements?

There are no specific requirements for being a Virtual Cyclist - how you engage is completely up to you. You may choose to ride a certain number of miles over the course of the whole summer, meet up with a few friends for a jaunt around the local trails, or do no cycling at all - it's all up to you! What matters is that you're helping us make a difference, and push toward a world free of MS.

Can I join a team as a Virtual Cyclist?

Absolutely! You can join or create a team, and teams can have a mix of both virtual and regular cyclists.

Can I switch from being a regular Cyclist to a Virtual Cyclist, or vice versa?

You can! It's a little easier to switch from a regular cyclist to virtual than the other way around - if you're switching from Virtual to in-person, you'll be responsible for the current registration fee, as well as filling out a paper waiver.

For help doing either, reach out to Fundraising Support at fundraisingsupport@nmss.org or 855-372-1331.
