On August 26, join Cycle 4 CMT to raise funds for research into Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, a progressive neurological disease that damages nerves that reach to the hands and feet, eventually resulting in partial or complete loss of use. The disease affects 2.8 million people worldwide and currently has no cure.
Choose between a 6.5-, 15-, 25- or 40-mile bike ride through Shelburne, Hinesburg and Charlotte, with views of the Adirondacks, Green Mountains and covered bridges. Don’t miss the after party with Vermont beer and food and live music. All proceeds benefit CMT research through the Charcot-Marie-Tooth Association. Walkers are also welcome.
