About the 2025 Ride

Join the Road to Victories team as we take on one of the most awe-inspiring and formidable cycling routes yet—Death Valley. Towering dunes, vast salt flats, rugged mountains, and endless desert skies set the stage for an unforgettable adventure. This is the ultimate test of endurance, and for you, it’s four days of challenge, camaraderie, and purpose—all to accelerate a cure for multiple myeloma.

The journey kicks off with a special pre-ride reception, where riders will connect, share their motivations, and prepare for the challenge ahead. Over the next four days, cyclists will push through the dramatic landscapes of Death Valley National Park, facing exhilarating elevation gains, breathtaking desert vistas, and the raw beauty of one of the most extreme environments on Earth.

Road to Victories events offer various distances each day, tailored to individual strength and ability—but make no mistake: this ride demands preparation (and we’ll support you every step of the way with a 12-week training plan). We will start and finish each day as a team, ride at our own pace, and come together in the evenings to share stories, celebrate accomplishments, and build lifelong memories.
