“Many riders choose to take on AIDS/LifeCycle as part of a team. Teams provide support and get riders motivated to train and reach goals. They are also a great way to obtain fundraising goals as this effort is crucial to the cause. Anyone can form a team so long as there are two or more individuals who are committed and up for the challenge.
One team that hopes to raise their fundraising goals is The Bearded Ladies, a group from California that has raised over $100,000 for AIDS/LifeCycle since their first ride in 2015.
