Million Dollar Challenge

The Million Dollar Challenge (MDC) has earned a reputation as one of the premier cycling events in the country where individuals can use their passion for cycling to make a difference in the lives of others. Join us on an epic seven-day journey that will challenge and transform your perception about what’s possible.

Every year, this journey delivers a life-changing experience for all participants. The MDC is unique in the world of cycling; it builds a community of riders with a deep and lasting appreciation for life – and for those who overcome seemingly insurmountable challenges to live life to the fullest. Helping to raise $1 million dollars for challenged athletes is deeply satisfying. But it is the journey that will change your life forever.

MDC riders not only change gears, but change lives along the road, and around the world.
