Description

Let's Cycle for Sickle Cell in 2019! What do you say? You wanna do it?Let's go for a short 12-mile fun ride.

Register Here.

The 2019 Cycling for Sickle Cell Ride is a fun ride to raise funds to benefit the Sickle Cell Disease Association of America - Mobile Chapter, Inc. (SCDAA-MC). We enjoy this event each year because it gives us a chance to share with those we do not normally get to talk to about sickle cell disease and how it affects our community. We certainly hope that you will take a moment to learn about the services we provide and the people we serve. The last three year's events were tons of fun, and we expect to have a fantastic time with you this year! Come ride with us, and help us "Break the sickle cycle!
