New York, Oct. 17, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cycle for Survival, the official rare cancer fundraiser of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK), has opened registration for its 2025 season of stationary-cycling events, with sign-ups already at 60% capacity. The high-energy rides will take place in 15 locations — including new cities like Darien, Connecticut — across the United States from January to March 2025. 100% of the funds raised across the events will support rare cancer research at MSK.
Anyone can register to ride and join the movement to beat rare cancers, and every dollar raised goes directly to innovative clinical trials, research, and major scientific initiatives. Cycle for Survival has raised over $376 million since it began in 2007, with nearly $155 million raised in the past five years alone. Locations for the 2025 season include:
- Boston
- Chicago
- Dallas
- Darien, CT
- Long Island, NY
- Los Angeles
- Miami
- New York City
- Palo Alto, CA
- Paramus, NJ
- San Francisco
- Seattle
- Summit, NJ
- Washington, D.C.
- Westchester, NY
Cycle for Survival’s efforts to fight back against rare cancers are supported by its generous partners and sponsors. Instructors from Equinox, Cycle for Survival’s founding partner, will lead the inspirational, high-energy rides at Equinox clubs nationwide. “Cycle for Survival energizes the entire Equinox community. From our members to our fitness instructors to our leadership, all of us look forward to riding and continuing to support bold, life-changing rare cancer research at MSK,” said Scott Rosen, Executive Advisor at Equinox. “We are proud that our clubs bring together so many dedicated Cycle for Survival supporters each year and are excited to be hosting rides in New York, Los Angeles, Miami, and throughout the United States.”
For the 2025 event season, Cycle for Survival announced a new Official Hydration Sponsor: Essentia® Water, the pioneer of ionized alkaline water in the United States. Essentia Ionized Alkaline Water and Essentia Hydroboost will be provided at all 2025 in-person events.
Additional sponsors include Vuori — the event’s Official Performance Apparel Sponsor — which provides exclusive Cycle for Survival gear that participants can earn through their fundraising efforts, and ICAP, which sponsors an annual fundraising challenge for participants.
Rare cancers include blood, brain, ovarian, and pancreatic cancers, as well as all pediatric cancers and many others. When combined, rare cancer diagnoses account for about half of all new cancers each year. But research into these rare diseases is largely underfunded, which often leaves patients with few or no treatment options. Cycle for Survival provides urgently needed funds to fuel the efforts of MSK doctors and researchers pursuing new treatments.
