Are my username and password the same as last year?

If you participated in a CF Cycle for Life event last year, your username and password will be the same. Since we have switched to a new web platform in 2013, your username and password from any year prior to 2013 is no longer valid. Please refer to the event registration document for detailed instructions on how to register.

Can I register for more than one CF Cycle for Life event?

Can my child ride in CF Cycle for Life?

Participants under the age of 16 are not permitted to participate in CF Cycle for Life. Minors between the ages of 16 and 17 years old must be accompanied by an adult during the event, and a parent/legal guardian must sign a CF Cycle for Life waiver specifically for the minor. If a parent/legal guardian is not accompanying their child during the ride, he or she must be available by phone. Even though children under 16 are not permitted to ride, we welcome their support as a CF Cycle for Life volunteer. For more information about becoming an event volunteer please go to your event home page and click on the "Become a Volunteer" button or contact your local chapter.

What is a virtual cyclist?

Registering as a virtual cyclist is a great option for those who want to participate in CF Cycle for Life through fundraising and training, but are unable to attend the day of the ride. All virtual cyclists will have access to the participant center to help them raise funds for CF Cycle for Life, and can still qualify to receive the CF Cycle for Life fundraising incentives and become a top rider.

If I can no longer ride at the event, can I still participate at CF Cycle for Life?

If you are no longer able to ride, you can absolutely still be a part of CF Cycle for Life as a volunteer or a virtual cyclist. For more information about becoming an event volunteer please go to your event home page and click on the "Become a Volunteer" button or contact your local chapter.

How do we earn a team tent?

What is the Circuit Series program?

The Circuit Series program is designed to recognize top fundraisers, and it allows riders to experience other CF Cycle for Life events. A rider who raises at least $5,000 may participate in another CF Cycle for Life ride anywhere in the country and will have the registration fee and fundraising requirement waived. A rider who raises at least $10,000 has the opportunity to participate in an unlimited number of CF Cycle for Life events in one calendar year. The registration fee and fundraising requirements are also waived. Cyclists that raise $10,000 and ride in more than two additional rides will receive the official Circuit Series jersey. Contact your local chapter for more information on the Circuit Series program.
